Or you could just supply an AppleScript applet installer to double-click.
All it needs, apparently, is

    do shell script "pythonw -c 'import idlelib.idle'"

All OS X users have 'do shell script' built in. All OS 10.4 users have
pythonw built in. They don't even have to look at the code, just
double-click the file (which can be disguised with a suitable icon by
pasting one into Get Info in the Finder, if you want).
