Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
It appears you are right about open('con'...).
However, this issue is about the fact that
>>> import time; time.sleep(10)
^C
...
KeyboardInterrupt
works in the console but does not work in the IDLE Shell in default mode. In
default mode (-n not on the command line) entered code is executed in a
separate process and and ^C causes a message to be sent to the separate process
to simulate ^C keypress by calling 'something'.
The indirect process works for 'normal' code like
>>> s = input('Hi')
so input() is not part of this issue, except that it or its interruption should
not be broken. Ditto for
>>> while True: pass
