Following works for me:

C:\Python24\pythonw.exe E:\Python24\Lib\idlelib\idle.py -r
E:\Python24\sitecustomize.py

or

C:\Python24\pythonw.exe   E:\Python24\Lib\idlelib\idle.py -c "import os;
from path import path"

content of my sitecustomize.py is:
"
import os
from path import path
"

and both ways of invoking IDLE have the same effect (apparently of faking
execution of not shown input line) of making the modules  os  and the class
path  available at start of IDLE.

My question in this context:
  Can the PyShell.py file in C:\Python24\Lib\idlelib directory be edited
somehow to achieve same effect?
