Under Windows, just make sure the filename ends with '.py' and then click on
it.

Under both Windows and Linux, get a command line, go to the directory with
the file in it, and type "python <filename>".

Under Linux, put "#!/usr/local/bin/python" on the first line of the file (or
whatever the path to your python is), make it executable (chmod +x
<filename>) and then just start it like any other program.

Also note the three links at
http://www.python.org/doc/NonEnglish.html#spanish .
