Best way for now is from the command prompt (like
"c:\\python25\\python test.py")
Since many newbies have no idea how to start a command prompt I'll
add:
go to
Start->Run
type CMD in the dialog and click OK
A black window should appear, this is the command prompt.
Typing
python<Return>
at the prompt should get you a Python >>> prompt.
Typing
Ctrl-Z<Return>
will exit it.
But as mentioned elsewhere using IDLE (or Python GUI
in the start menu) is a better option. Or if you got the ActiveState
version of python better still use PythonWin.
