I was just getting Jython working with py.exe, and I think the documentation can be made a bit more friendly. In particular think we can make it easier for people to determine the correct folder by changing the line in 3.4.4.1 Customization via INI files:
Two .ini files will be searched by the launcher - py.ini in the current user’s "application data" directory (i.e. the directory returned by calling the Windows function SHGetFolderPath with CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA) and py.ini in the same directory as the launcher.

Two .ini files will be searched by the launcher - py.ini in the current
user’s "application data" directory (i.e. the directory returned by
executing echo %LOCALAPPDATA%
in a command window) and py.ini in the same
directory as the launcher.
%LOCALAPPDATA% should always contain the same value as would be returned from SHGetFolderPath with CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA.
