idlelib and IDLE
----------------

Module Browser (on the File menu, formerly called Class Browser),
now displays nested functions and classed in addition to top-level
functions and classes.
(Contributed by Guilherme Polo, Cheryl Sabella, and Terry Jan Reedy
in :issue:`1612262`.)

The Settings dialog (Options, Configure IDLE) has been partly rewritten
to improve both appearance and function.
(Contributed by Cheryl Sabella and Terry Jan Reedy in multiple issues.)

The font sample now includes a selection of non-Latin characters so that
users can better see the effect of selecting a particular font.
(Contributed by Terry Jan Reedy in :issue:`13802`.)
The sample can be edited to test other characters.
(Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in :issue:`31860`.)

The IDLE features formerly implemented as extensions have been reimplemented
as normal features. Their settings have been moved from the Extensions tab
to other dialog tabs.
(Contributed by Charles Wohlganger and Terry Jan Reedy in :issue:`27099`.)

The changes above have been backported to 3.6 maintenance releases.
