[issue10940] IDLE 3.2 hangs with Cmd-M hotkey on OS X 10.6 with 64-bit installer and A/S Tk 8.5

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at acm.org> added the comment:

The attached temporary patch avoids the hang seen when IDLE is used with Cocoa Tk 8.5 by removing the menu accelerator hints from IDLE's menu on OS X.  The keyboard accelerators still work when typed but the character hints are not displayed on their menu items.  The affected commands are:
    Open Module       Cmd-M
    Go to Line        Cmd-J
    New Indent Width  Control-U

This should be applied to 3.2rc2.  I will leave the issue open for possible backport to 2.7 and to find a better resolution so that this patch can be reverted.
