When left- or right-going in line with ctrl-arrow (left/right) I have encountered problems: example word with polish (cp1250) diacritics: za|óB (last 4 letters might be unreadable) this keybord shortcut stops each time diacritic letter is encountered, not at the end of the word. It is frustrating as I have many strings and comments in Polish. I thing it might work bad also in the case of any other non-ASCII letters.

Logged In: YES user_id=149084 The control-{right,left} action appears to be implemented in Tkinter, probably in Tcl/Tk, it's not an IDLE issue. Someone should check if the problem exists in Tk. Passing this on to the Tkinter crew.

This is not a bug in tkinter either, unfortunately. Please report it at tk tracker: http://sourceforge.net/projects/tktoolkit/ Here is the equivalent tcl code to reproduce the problem (you could use it while re-reporting at the tk tracker): $ wish8.5 % pack [text .t] % .t insert 1.0 abc % .t insert 1.0 "z\u0102\u02c7"
