[Bug 365534] Re: IDLE crashes on code completion

[Bruce Pieterse]

Same problem with Natty 11.04 using Python 3.2. I'm presuming the correct hexadecimal to use would be 0x02 (SP) not 0xc0 (Illegal Character) according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF_8#Invalid_byte_sequences. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with Python yet (was busy learning, when I encountered it) but hopefully someone more experience can get this fixed.
