Just trying to list the actual ways / options to start the idle and how
it's expected to behave. Please feel free to change/expand
it:

"StartUp             "IDLE          "IDLE
Way/Option"          Editor"        interative"
------------------------------------------------

CLI idle -e           Yes            No
CLI idle -i           No             Yes
CLI idle              No             Yes
2-click .py           ?              ?
2-click idle.app      No             Yes
?

Regards,
