This issue is very similar to issue5707: it is possible to define a custom key binding to "<Alt>" or "<Control>": just click the Alt box and don't select a letter. There is no check, it's possible to save this buggy key binding, and IDLE won't start anymore. IDLE should: - check the validity of the binding and refuse to save it when it is invalid - gracefully skip invalid bindings from the config file
