Hi,

While testing Tkinter.Text I've found some problems and it would be good
to fix them in trunk.

The methods edit_redo, edit_reset, edit_separator and edit_undo doesn't
return anything, so I would suggest to remove the return statements there.
The debug method doesn't return a boolean when we set a value for the
debug option, so the getboolean function fails:

>>> import Tkinter
>>> text = Tkinter.Text()
>>> text.debug()
False
>>> text.debug(1)
...
_tkinter.TclError: expected boolean value but got ""


I'm also suggesting a change in the bbox signature. Right now it
supports receiving multiple args, but the bbox command in Tcl expects a
single item as the index. I believe it makes more sense to indicate that
it accepts a single argument. An index like '1.0 +1c' needs to either be
passed as '1.0 +1c' or ('1.0', '+1c') (a tuple holding the two parts),
not as '1.0', '+1c' (two arguments).

The suggested changes are mostly trivial, but there should be comments on the change to the bbox signature.

Issue19085 adds test file in which test for this issue should be placed.

Here is a patch with tests.

Only fix for tkinter.Text.debug() (and perhaps test_bbox) should be backported to maintenance releases.
