IDLE exhibits quirky behavior when displaying strings longer than 4093 
characters

Python versions: believed to be all. I found this on Python 2.5 / IDLE 
1.2.2
OS: Windows Vista; let me know if it repros on others.

Testcase attached has a length-4094 string.
IDLE will not display this unless your cursor is inside the string.
If you delete characters so length <= 4093, IDLE displays it ok again.
