Since this comes up on a weekly basis, perhaps the installer should open
that web page to section 3.8.1 after a successful installation. Maybe
users would read that short section and not try to run the installer
over and over again. Or since that can be annoying, a prominent "how to
get started" link to click on. I dunno.
I'm not sure why users think the installer is the python interpreter
after running it the first time, but apparently many do.
