Most changes to Python require a NEWS entry. Add one using the blurb_it web app or the blurb command-line tool.

If this change has little impact on Python users, wait for a maintainer to apply the skip news label instead.

I use blurb to create a .rst file then click add file and choose it to IDLE, but it was wrong. So how should I do?

To add a test, I think if might be sufficient to add the following tuple to the end of data in test_idle.test_run.ExceptionTest.

            ('raise NameError("123\n456")', NameError, "123\n456\n"),

If you want me to make changes and test, I will, but I need sleep now.

The hint process is rather fragile. Modifying get_message_lines so that sys.excepthook does not print any traceback, which require setting err.traceback to None before the call in addition to not passing a traceback, can alter the hint. In particular, for abc, "Did you mean: 'abs'?" is omitted and only "Did you forget to import 'abc'?" is added. Not only do the message changes break multiple tests, but this particular result is worse for the user. I am accepting the alternative of directly printing multiline user name error messages instead of calling a modified get_message_lines. I will look at adding a new test_xxx function to test the case fixed here.
