    Either:

    1: python filename.py arg1 arg2 ...

    or

    2: make sure your Python file begins with

    #!/usr/bin.env python

    then

    % chmod +x filename.py
    % filename.py arg1 arg2 ...

    regards

    make sure the first line of the file looks like:

    #!/usr/bin/python

    (the path may be different)

    then you do 'chmod +x filename.py'. Now you can run it by typing
    './filename.py' or '/path/to/filename.py'.
