That is one of my problems, I don't know exactly how the whole command
line thing works.  The other day, I got it to open python by itself,
but I accidentally closed the window and couldn't get it to work
again.  I know how to do file paths and stuff but I'm not sure what to
put directly after it says C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner>.  Do I
leave it like that and then put the next location in the line?  Like
this:
C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner> Python 2.5.1\Python area.py
Or is that wrong.  I've already uninstalled and reinstalled because I
couldn't copy and paste it to another location, so I just reinstalled
it to HP_Owner.  I'll try that link.
Thanks.
