[New-bugs-announce] [issue33942] IDLE crash when typing opening bracket

[Jasper Trooster]

New submission from Jasper Trooster <jasper.trooster at gmail.com>:

Sometimes when I type print in my code, the application crashes. Then a window pops up, saying that the program suddenly stopped (description of  error message below). When I click on the option to reopen IDLE, nothing happens, I have to manually reopen it again. I have already sent a report to Apple.

Description of the error message:
IDLE suddenly stopped.
Click on 'Reopen' to reopen the program. Click on 'Report' to view more information and send a report to Apple. 
(?)   (Ignore) (Report...) (Open)

I am coding on a Macbook from late 2008 on OSX El Capitan, version 10.11.6.
