Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: idle3
Under IDLE (all versions), Control+Space (show completion menus) induces a
crash.
Tested on 'idle3' under Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64 -- bug present and reproducible.
Tested on 'idle3' Windows 7 & XP -- bug not present.
When pressing Control+Space, you would expect it to show completions
however, I have observed:
* Instead of showing completions, IDLE crashes completely
* It is the result of a problem with the UTF-8 encoding, see trace back
below
* A work-around is to map this function to a non-crash-inducing key
combination, but Control+Space would be ideal
Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/idle3", line 5, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/lib/python3.1/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 1420, in main
root.mainloop()
File "/usr/lib/python3.1/tkinter/__init__.py", line 1012, in mainloop
self.tk.mainloop(n)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xc0 in position 0: invalid

I expect that this would be very easy to fix.
