[issue25356] Idle (Python 3.4 on Ubuntu) does not allow typing accents

Terry, first of all thanks for trying to solve this.

I usually start IDLE using Ubuntu's dash.

The problem is with more than just the three characters. Others that I have tested and that don't work include "ç", "`", umlauts... There work in others places in my system such as the console for example.

When I try ALT+M or CTRL+O, inside IDLE, these characters work.

This is a copy of my output. Seems OK
!  "  #  $  %  &  '  (  )  *  +  ,  -  .  /  
0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  :  ;  <  =  >  ?  
@  A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  
P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z  [  \  ]  ^  _  
`  a  b  c  d  e  f  g  h  i  j  k  l  m  n  o  
p  q  r  s  t  u  v  w  x  y  z  {  |  }  ~
