Summary: sys.executable in applets

Initial Comment:
In applets sys.executable is the interpreter in the applet. Running this will launch a second copy of the applet. As sys.executable is apparently often used to fire up external scripts with system() or popen() this isn't very useful right now (especially within the IDE!).

It would be nice if sys.executable could be set to an interpreter that can be used for starting external scripts.
