On my system that's

        Note that this is not the Tk based IDLE (which is implemented,
itself, as a .pyw file and is not natively executable -- which seems to
be one of the problems; Win7 has removed the detailed file type
association windows so you can't specify that the "application" is
pythonw.exe running idle.pyw using one's selected file as the argument
to the mess).

Bummer!

Sorry W.eWatson, my instructions may not work. I've got the ActiveState Python on my Windows machine. It runs a .exe file as the IDLE executable. If your implementation doesn't have an exe then you're going to have to do some more complex work.

Since I don't have the version of Python from python.org under Windows, I can't really advise on what to do with that. If you haven't got an exe, my instructions will only work if you install the ActiveState version, which does have one.
