Good to know for those who insist on Win$.

You can, if you insist. The only thing is that you have to track how
OS X starts the graphical interface, and where you can set environment
variables (the analog for .bashrc for the shells). As a first guess,
~/.profile should certainly be read. I did this tracking once under
Linux for the combination of X, kdm, kde and konsole -- which was
quite some effort. But keep always in mind that a well-controlled
configuration will avoid trouble and save your time on the long run.
(And you might share it with the other IDLE users here on the list)

No.
