[issue27750] Idle Shell freezes when printing 100000+ char lines.

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

200 (lines) * 200 (columns) * 3 (or more chars/item) = line with 120000+ chars -- which you try to print 200 times.  This is known to mostly freeze tk Text windows.  This was not a crash for me, as I was able to close Shell and continue.

PS: Please post uncompressed files next time.

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
stage:  -> resolved
status: open -> closed

title: Idle editor crashes when input size more than 250 lines given -> Idle Shell freezes when printing 100000+ char lines.
