Found and fixed two bugs in the Windows installer for Python 2.4, and
updated vpython.org. I didn't change the version number.
Here's what happened. Python24\Lib\idlelib\config-main.def contains the
specs for how IDLE works, and these preferences are used if you don't
have one of your own. I made a mistake in generating the Python 2.4
VPython for Windows in not setting these general preferences to the ones
novice users of VPython expect (start up edit window; autosave on run).
The second bug I fixed is that uninstall should not remove this file.
In your Documents and Settings\Your Name\.idlerc is a personal file that
overrides, so that depending on past history you might or might not get
the behavior you expect.
