On Unix platforms you can run your script with a redirection of the 
standard output:

python myscript.py > somefile.txt &

[The ampersand runs the command in the background]. Then you can monitor 
the content of the output file with

tail -f somefile.txt

which will show you the last part of the file and further additions as 
long as you let the tail command run.
