corrected at Rev 1.85, but missed in the backport! Thanks to Hans Gubitz for noticing this.

Added a Tk error dialog to run.py inform the user if the subprocess can't
connect to the user GUI process. Added a timeout to the GUI's listening
socket. Added Tk error dialogs to PyShell.py to announce a failure to bind the
port or connect to the subprocess. Clean up error handling during connection
initiation phase. This is an update of Python Patch 778323.

e.g. further improve subprocess interrupt, exceptions, and termination.
2. Remove the workarounds in PyShell.py and ScriptBinding.py involving
interrupting the subprocess prior to killing it, not necessary anymore.
3. Fix a bug introduced at PyShell Rev 1.66: was getting extra shell menu
every time the shell window was recreated.

in the same directory. Do the same for a script run from the command
line.
2. Tweak the IDLE usage message a bit more.

2. Remove the shell menu and associated bindings when running
without the subprocess.
3. Update the IDLE Help and usage text.

2. Add an indicator to the shell startup notice when running w/o
subprocess.
3. Improve exception reporting when running a command or script from the
command line.
4. Clarify the fact that breakpoints set or cleared after a file is
saved will revert to the saved state if the file is closed without
re-saving.
5. If user tries to exit or restart when user code is running, interrupt
the user code. This helps to eliminate occasional hanging
subprocesses on Windows (except for Freddy :).

2. run.py: move exception printing to toplevel to allow access from main()
3. Clarification in PyShell.py: when the subprocess is restarted, the
debugger GUI is reused with a fresh instance of the subprocess
debugger.
