New submission from Terry J. Reedy: A month ago, for 3.5 and 3.6, I added a test file by Westley MartÃnez (note accent on i) and then his name into Misc/NEWS and idlelib/NEWS.txt. As a result, the latter will not display when the button on About IDLE is clicked. Instead, a UnicodeDecodeError is sent to stderr. I will add a test for the About box.
