1.    Open <Hello World.py>
2.    Make your change
3.    Save the changes <Ctrl-s>
4.    Run the script <Ctrl-F5>

If you are dealing with mutliple module files, then you should:

A.    Repeat step 1 to 3 above
B.    Go to the main module
C.    Repeat Step 4

It works most of the time, unless you use thread modules.

Hope it helps!
