Message 231338 - Python tracker

When attempting to save a file containing an Å character with the debugger open, IDLE freezes with/or without partially opening the warning window. (Mac OS X 10.9.5, IDLE running python 2.7.5). Reproducible steps:

- Create and save file with one line:
1+1  # A
- Open IDLE
- Open the debugger
- Open the file
- Delete the "A", type <shift><alt>A
- type <command>s to save. This triggers the problem.

Application hangs ("not responding") and needs to force quit. Sometimes the graphics memory of other applications gets corrupted.
