I have an IDLE.app on my 10.4 machine. Since I haven't really used it, I can't remember if it came with Tiger, or showed up when I installed Python 2.4 -- does everyone with OS 10.4 have it? Is it just a shell to call  idlelib? If so, is there any way to tell whether it calls with python or with pythonw?

Since IDLE runs its shells and scripts in subprocesses, wx (or any other GUI framework) is possible to use if and only if IDLE was started via "pythonw".  If IDLE is started with just "python" then wx will not operate.  I believe the Tk that ships with OS X 10.4 does have the CPS hack that allows it to work even if started with python, but that doesn't help wx at all.
