The Mac-specific shutdown warning from multiprocessing is not directly related to IDLE.  'multiprocessing' is not imported by IDLE and is not in sys.modules when IDLE starts.

From 'all-day' I assume that there was a time period between starting IDLE and getting the traceback.

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/tkinter/__init__.py", line 1885, in __call__
    return self.func(*args)

__call__ here is a method of CallWrapper, often used for event handlers.

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/idlelib/autocomplete_w.py", line 248, in winconfig_event
    acw_width, acw_height = acw.winfo_width(), acw.winfo_height()

winconfig_event handles tk '<configure>' events.  "A Configure event is sent to a window whenever its size, position, or border width changes, and sometimes when it has changed position in the stacking order."  IDLE triggers it somehow.  It has had intermittent bugs before.

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/tkinter/__init__.py", line 1291, in winfo_width
    self.tk.call('winfo', 'width', self._w))
_tkinter.TclError: bad window path name ".!listedtoplevel4.!frame.text.!toplevel2"

The name is for an editor window (listedtoplevel) with a frame with a text with a popup (unlisted toplevel).  The toplevel2 suggests that this is the second popup for this text.  The name looks correct except that I expected 'text' to maybe be '!text'.  In any case, the name is generated by tkinter without IDLE being involved.
