I recently installed python 3.1 on a Windows XP computer. I cannot open IDLE nor module Docs. When I click on them, nothing happens. I am wondering if there is anyway on opening either of those too files. I do know how to IDLE through the workaround listed below but i have to put that in everytime to open IDLE. I am wondering if there was a permanent fix so i can just open if from my desktop. 
C:\>set TCL_LIBRARY= 
C:\>set TK_LIBRARY= 
C:\>C:\Python31\python.exe C:\Python31\Lib\idlelib\idle.py

You will need to delete TCL_LIBRARY and TK_LIBRARY in your environment settings.

But I need those to make windows and screens.

Try making an idle.bat file on your desktop.
