diff Lib/lib-tk/tkSimpleDialog.py @ 21259:102d18ea02cf legacy-trunk

Be more careful about accessing attributes of the parent: if Tk has not been initialized, this will be None, but the functions will still work (there will simply be a bogus parent on the screen). Allowing the parent to be None is useful when testing the functions from an interactive interpreter. Add an optional keyword paramter "show" to the _QueryString class; when given it is used to set the -show option to the entry widget. This allows passing show="*" or the like to askstring(), making it useful for requesting passwords/passphrases from the user. This closes SF bug #438517. Changed a docstring to be less font-lock-hostile.
