[New-bugs-announce] [issue29287] IDLE needs syntax highlighting for f-strings

[Raymond Hettinger]

New submission from Raymond Hettinger:

Follow the lead from Vim, MagicPython, and PyCharm.  Needs separate colorization to make the expression distinct from the rest of the string.  Needs close-brace matching.  Would be desirable to have autocompletion as well.
