Turns out IDLE no longer runs. Starting at line 88 of
Tools/idle/EditorWindow.py we have this class defn:
class EditorWindow:
from Percolator import Percolator
from ColorDelegator import ColorDelegator
from UndoDelegator import UndoDelegator
from IOBinding import IOBinding
import Bindings
from Tkinter import Toplevel
from MultiStatusBar import MultiStatusBar
about_title = about_title
...
This leads to what looks like a bug (if we're to believe the error msg,
which doesn't mean what it says):
C:\Pyk>python tools/idle/idle.pyw
Traceback (most recent call last):

Sorry for the delay in reporting this! I've had other problems with the
Windows installer (all fixed now), and IDLE *normally* executes pythonw.exe
on Windows, which tosses error msgs into a bit bucket. So all I knew was
that IDLE "didn't come up", and took the high-probability guess that it was
due to some other problem I was already tracking down. Lost that bet.
