SF Patch 686254 "Run IDLEfork from any directory without set-up"
Allows IDLE to run when not installed and cwd is not the IDLE directory.
I took the liberty of moving it to the startup scripts since once IDLEfork
is again a part of Python it will be superfluous and I don't want it to
be forgotten. But it is very useful for those using IDLEfork standalone!

attributes and methods work, that new arguments can be passed to the
constructor, and that inherited methods and attrs still work. Added
XXX comments about what to do when datetime becomes usably subclassable
too (it's not yet).
* Delimiter mismatch now prints a warning instead of raising an exception.
* Offer style warnings for use of e.g. and i.e.
* Bypass false positive warnings for forward slashes in urls and in /rfc822.
* Put non-LaTex delimiter matching first to make -d option more reliable.
- When redirecting, always use GET. This is common practice and
more-or-less sanctioned by the HTTP standard.
- Add a handler for 307 redirection, which becomes an error for POST,
but a regular redirect for GET and HEAD.
sys.path, prepend it. This allows the module to import other modules
in the same directory. Do the same for a script run from the command
line.
2. Tweak the IDLE usage message a bit more.

2. Remove the shell menu and associated bindings when running
without the subprocess.
3. Update the IDLE Help and usage text.
4. Update display_port_binding_error to suggest using -n

2. Add an indicator to the shell startup notice when running w/o
subprocess.
3. Improve exception reporting when running a command or script from the
command line.
4. Clarify the fact that breakpoints set or cleared after a file is
saved will revert to the saved state if the file is closed without
re-saving.
5. If user tries to exit or restart when user code is running, interrupt
the user code. This helps to eliminate occasional hanging
subprocesses on Windows (except for Freddy :).

This bug, henceforth designated Freddy, was due to the mistaken
elimination of the KeyboardInterrupt exception at the previous revision.
PyShell's unix_terminate hammer was masking the problem on Linux. On W2K
the subprocess MainThread was trying to print the exception after the
SockThread had ceased to service the socket. The subprocess would then
detach and spin when the GUI created the new subprocess.
