[issue22105] Idle: Hang during File "Save As"

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

What file were you trying to save to? Be very exact. Reading/Saving to 'Library' files is known to have problems and there is another issue for this.

Were you trying to save the Shell window, displaying output from your program. 

What is the minimum # of lines required to have a problem.  400000 lines is probably "won't fix" because the problem is likely with tk and Windows, not Idle.  Your program should print directly to a file.
