r.david.murray- Thank You for your inquiry.
My recipe for this crash is (1) simply to start IDLE 3.2.3 in either Snow
Leopard or Mountain Lion (2) click on the Bold "IDLE" menu in the menu bar and
(3) click on menu item "preferences". At this point a dialog called "Problem
Report for IDLE" appears with gobs of technical data details below a message
"IDLE quit unexpectedly". I copied what I thought might be most specific.
(The suggested 'click to reopen' does not work)
I hope this data from the details section is informative even if it is not the
only exception type or code I have seen related to IDLE in similar conditions:
