Content
I don't particularly mind what the fix is - but at the moment users can download and install Python from a python.org installer and then have an (apparently) non functioning IDLE and Tkinter. At the very least we should advise users to install the 32bit only binary (which presumably works - I should try it) unless they need the 64 bit Python. (And also let them know that installing the 64 bit version means that Tkinter / IDLE doesn't work on Snow Leopard.)

At the very least we should advise users to install the 32bit only binary (which presumably works - I should try it) unless they *need* the 64 bit Python. (And also let them know that installing the 64 bit version means that Tkinter / IDLE doesn't work on Snow Leopard.)
