    run python. If it works, you've got Python.
    Prove you can code in C++ or C# at TopCoder, referrer rrenaud

    that's python. it's called the interactive mode. you can enter python code, and it's processed by the interpreter one statement at a time.

    python files can also be passed on the interpreter: [myprompt$] python foo.py

    there's a simple gui called idle that's included with most distros. also i use a gui called Black Adder, which is a full featured IDE, but it costs money (a small amount)...

    The traditional way to write Python code would with Emacs.
    Emacs's Python mode is really great. By saying C-C C-C(C- means Ctrl) you get the buffer interpreted immediately. You get also syntax highlightning if you have set it up.
    I am not using Dev-C++.
    #!/usr/bin/env python
    import sys;file=open(sys.argv[0]);print file.read();file.close()
