[New-bugs-announce] [issue43476] Enabling access to showsyntaxerror for IDLE's shell

[Andre Roberge]

New submission from Andre Roberge <andre.roberge at gmail.com>:

As a result of https://bugs.python.org/issue43008, IDLE now supports custom exception hook for almost all cases except for code entered in the interactive shell that result in SyntaxError. It would be useful for some applications if a way to replace the error handling currently done by IDLE for this particular case was made available to user code.

I consider this to be in the "would be nice to have" category, but in no means a high priority item.
