[issue1542677] IDLE shell doesn't accept non ascii char input

[Santiago Gala]

Santiago Gala added the comment:

works in python 3ka2 (svn as of today):

>>> print("á")
á
>>> print(b"á")
SyntaxError: bytes can only contain ASCII literal characters.
(<pyshell#5>, line 1)

as it should, so the problem appears in 2.* only.
