[issue33785] Crash caused by pasting ̖̈ into python

It doesn't crash in Powershell, only shows up as the ? in a box character
The issue must be with IDLE, most likely the BMP lack of support

Depending on PowerShell's support for Unicode (I'm not familiar with it :)), 
yes; running python from PowerShell would probably be fine in this case.

The BMP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(Unicode)#Basic_Multilingual_Plane

Matthew Barnett  added the comment:

For clarity, the first is '\U00010308\U00010316' and the second is 
'\U00010306\U00010300\U0001030B'.

The BMP is the Basic Multilingual Plane, which covers the codepoints in the 
range U+ to U+. Some software has a problem dealing with codepoints 
outside the BMP.

Would running it in Powershell avoid the issue?
What is the BMP, by the way?

I suspect this is the old issue of Tcl/Tk's lack of support for Unicode 
characters outside the BMP.  If I'm correct, there's nothing we can do about it.

[issue33785] Crash caused by pasting ̖̈ into python

[Romaji Milton Amulo]

New submission from Romaji Milton Amulo :

On Windows 10, 64 bit, "Python 3.6.1 (v3.6.1:69c0db5, Mar 21 2017, 18:41:36) 
[MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32" crashes if ̖̈ is pasted into the 
interpreter window, closing the window immediately.
Also ̆̀̋ crashes it too, suggesting the bug might be in text processing of 
Etruscan runes.
