Several users have reported that after installing VPython on Windows 2000,
pressing F5 in Idle does NOT run the program. We've now been able to
reproduce the bug, by installing Python into C:\Program
Files\Python-2.1\Python21 instead of the default directory.
The fix is simple: Uninstall VPython, then uninstall Python. Reinstall
Python into the default directory (C:\Python21), and reinstall VPython. Now
F5 will run a program from Idle.
We do not yet know what the cause of the problem is but are working on it.
