Open a terminal.. Applications..Accessories..Terminal
Then type cd Desktop (notice the uppercase D)
type ls
It will list the files on the Desktop (just like dir)
type python yourprogram.py (whatever it is named)
See if that works..

I am trying to run them from the desktop by double clicking on them then
selecting either run or run in terminal from the box that pops up. I
tried right clicking on the program to select "open with python" but that
was not an option. When I right clicked and selected "open with another
application" python was not listed on the application list. I know I have
python 2.5 installed because it states so on the synamtic package
manager.Jason----- Original Message ----- From: <dbcad7@xxxxxxxxxx>To:
