  1. On 2.7/3.1 multiple copies of IDLE can be
    run
    simultaneously, so the -n switch used in the
    Windows Start menu shortcut with "Edit with
    IDLE" should be eliminated.

  2. On 3.1, the idle script has been renamed
    idle3.

This may interact with the Win installer
shortcut
configuration.

These changes shouldn't be backported to 26-maint
or 30-maint.

I'd offer a patch, but, though I see suspects,
I'm not sure exactly where this lives.

The -n switch is now removed in r72335, r72336.

I'm not sure what the necessary action is on the idle script. It's not
used on Windows; it isn't even installed. So unassigning myself.
