[New-bugs-announce] [issue23961] IDLE autocomplete window does not automatically close when selection is made

[Al Sweigart]

New submission from Al Sweigart:

All autocomplete features (for example, Eclipse & Android Studio) cause the autocomplete window to disappear when a selection is made. When tab is pressed in IDLE, the window does not disappear.

IDLE should be changed so that the window goes away when tab is pressed to complete the window after Ctrl+Space or Edit > Show Completions openedit. Currently, the window stays open until another keyboard key is pressed (e.g. space, or an opening parenthesis)
