fwiw

Python 3.10.6 (main, Nov 14 2022, 16:10:14) [GCC 11.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
str = ""
for c in range(157, 169):
    str += chr(c) + ""

    
print(str)

str = ""
for c in range(140, 169):
    str += chr(c) + " "

    
print(str)

I don't know how this will appear since Pan is showing the icon for a 
character not in its set.  However, even with more undefined characters 
the printable one do not change. I get the same output running Python3 
from the terminal so it's not an IDLE thing.
