I don't know about idle, but the "real" python supports the
PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable.
PYTHONSTARTUP
If this is the name of a readable file, the Python commands in
that file are executed before the first prompt is displayed in
interactive mode. The file is executed in the same name space
where interactive commands are executed so that objects defined or
imported in it can be used without qualification in the
interactive session. You can also change the prompts sys.ps1 and
sys.ps2 in this file.Jeff
