[issue40553] Python 3.8.2 Mac freezing/not responding when saving new programs

[Ned Deily]

Zain and/or Raymond: can you please give the exact steps to reproduce this problem, including exactly how you invoke IDLE, the Python version info and build date info from the IDLE shell window, the details of exactly how you invoke Save As (i.e whether via clicking on the menu bar File menu or instead by using a keyboard shortcut like shift-cmd-S. And when the SaveAs window appears perhaps a screen shot or at least what options you have selected (icons, list, etc, expanded or compressed window) and what is the default folder it opens to. I am not able to reproduce a hang although I do see some delays. Also what happens if you just use Save for a new file rather than Save As? If it's a new file, that should also produce a Save file window and that's what I always use when smoke testing.  EIther should work, of course :(
