 +- Issue #25584: Added "escape" to the __all__ list in the glob module.
  
 -- Issue #24455: Prevent IDLE from hanging when a) closing the shell while the
 -  debugger is active (15347); b) closing the debugger with the [X] button
 -  (15348); and c) activating the debugger when already active (24455).
 -  The patch by Mark Roseman does this by making two changes.

 +  of datetime.datetime: microseconds are now rounded to nearest with ties
 +  going to nearest even integer (ROUND_HALF_EVEN), instead of being rounding
 +  towards minus infinity (ROUND_FLOOR). It's important that these methods use
 +  the same rounding mode than datetime.timedelta to keep the property:

 +  It also the rounding mode used by round(float) for example.

 +
 +- Issue 15348: Stop the debugger engine (normally in a user process)
 +  before closing the debugger window (running in the IDLE process).
 +  This prevents the RuntimeErrors that were being caught and ignored.
 +
 +- Issue #24455: Prevent IDLE from hanging when a) closing the shell while the
 +  debugger is active (15347); b) closing the debugger with the [X] button
 +  (15348); and c) activating the debugger when already active (24455).
 +  The patch by Mark Roseman does this by making two changes.
 +  1. Suspend and resume the gui.interaction method with the tcl vwait
 +  mechanism intended for this purpose (instead of root.mainloop & .quit).
 +  2. In gui.run, allow any existing interaction to terminate first.
 +
 +- Change 'The program' to 'Your program' in an IDLE 'kill program?' message
 +  to make it clearer that the program referred to is the currently running

 +- Issue #24782: Extension configuration is now a tab in the IDLE Preferences
 +  dialog rather than a separate dialog.  The former tabs are now a sorted
 +  list.  Patch by Mark Roseman.
 +
 +- Issue #22726: Re-activate the config dialog help button with some content
 +  about the other buttons and the new IDLE Dark theme.
 +
 +- Issue #24820: IDLE now has an 'IDLE Dark' built-in text color theme.
 +  It is more or less IDLE Classic inverted, with a cobalt blue background.
 +  Strings, comments, keywords, ... are still green, red, orange, ... .
    To use it with IDLEs released before November 2015, hit the
    'Save as New Custom Theme' button and enter a new name,
    such as 'Custom Dark'.  The custom theme will work with any IDLE
