	I've never had to do that... But I have file associations set up so
that .py is considered to be an executable file.

	Just double-clicking on the file will run it. The problem is that it
will open a command shell, run, and then close the command shell UNLESS one
explicitly codes some sort of "hold" at the end of the program

	jnk = input("Press return to exit")

	.pyw extension does not open the command shell -- but is meant for
programs that use one of the various GUI frameworks, which is probably more
than the new-comer is ready to attack.
