I was also using a dual-screen setup: laptop + external display.

 Thanks, Tom, nice writeup!  If any of the other people who have seen this
 crash are still around, it would be interesting to know if they also were
 using more than one monitor.

[issue16177] IDLE Crash on Open Parens

[Brian Keegan]

Brian Keegan added the comment:

I moved the idlerc to the disabled folder like you recommended and I
haven't been able to reproduce the error again. I'll cautiously take this
as an indication of a fix, but will update if it changes.

Thank you!

 I've not seen any reports of this behavior before.  Can you try two
 things?  One, try temporarily disabling your current IDLE preferences. Quit
 IDLE, then from a terminal shell, type something like:

 mv ~/.idlerc ~/.idlerc-disabled

 then launch IDLE and try the paren again.  If that doesn't help, try
 temporarily disabling the ActiveState Tk.  Again, quit IDLE. Then, from a
 terminal shell:

 cd /Library/Frameworks
 sudo mv Tcl.framework Tcl-disabled
 sudo mv Tk.framework Tk-disabled

 Then try IDLE again.
