[issue47156] IDLE: make use of extended SyntaxError info.

If by this you mean having access to the error from a known place (like 
sys.last_traceback or something else specific to IDLE but available from a 
script), then the answer from me is definitely yes.

[issue47156] IDLE: make use of extended SyntaxError info.

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy :

In 3.10 and 3.11:

>>> while s := input.read(MAXBINSIZE):
... while len(s) < MAXBINSIZE and ns := input.read(MAXBINSIZE-len(s)):
  File "", line 2
while len(s) < MAXBINSIZE and ns := input.read(MAXBINSIZE-len(s)):
  ^^
SyntaxError: cannot use assignment expressions with expression

IDLE only colors the 'l' of 'len'; add extended marking.

Some other errors gained extended location in 3.11 (only, I believe).  Adding 
colors may require monkeypatching method or subclassing class in traceback.py.  
May have commented on issue or PR.
