option in config-extensions w/o a value. Patch #1672481, Tal Einat
- Corrected some bugs in AutoComplete. Also, Page Up/Down in ACW implemented;
mouse and cursor selection in ACWindow implemented; double Tab inserts
current selection and closes ACW (similar to double-click and Return); scroll
wheel now works in ACW. Added AutoComplete instructions to IDLE Help.

is started with that option.

check, resulting in obscure error messages. Do the syntax check
first. Bug 1562716, 1562719

the Python release of which it's a part.
