When I say the "Interactive window", I do mean the shell that comes up when
I start IDLE.

I have set IDLESTARTUP and my startup.py file is still not being executed.
The only command in my startup.py script right now is 'import os'.  When I
type os.sys.path from the interactive window, an error appears because 'os'
is not defined, which it would be if my startup.py file had been run.  This
is my understanding anyway.  Am I understanding correctly?

IDLESTARTUP = D:\Program Files\Python22\PythonStartUpCmds.py
"Interactive Window" = "D:\Program Files\Python22\pythonw.exe"
"D:\PROGRA~1\Python22\Tools\idle\idle.pyw"

Thanks,
Brandon
