(Whoops, unlinked misplaced message.)

I will add py.ini *again* and watch more carefully before and after further installs.

The problem with the doc is that it does not say where the py.ini file should go, and it inherently cannot because the locations are not independent of the user, install type, and windows version.  (For user installs, my understanding is that the install is in a hidden file that most users will not even know how to access.)  To me, the reference to the windows internal function is worse than useless and should perhaps be removed.

I use py -h to remind whether I need -3.5 or -35.
