| Objects with a 500,000+ character __repr__ will cause the IDLE shell to hang and thus lose any progress on open windows. 200,000 (on a decent system) seems to be the tipping point where it can never recover. | ||

| I am quite aware that tk text widgets (and probably other widgets) have line-length limitations. Which issue this duplicates depends on what action you propose. #28840 proposes addressing limits in the docs. #1442493 is about code changes. |
