    I don't really understand what you mean by 'automatically' but i
    tried the following in my machine :

    test ( i didn't put .py as extension to test)
    *****
    print "Hello";

    Then at the prompt i did
    python test

    hello

    It seems that it works for me both at the prompt (using Python
    interpreter as well as in IDLE's Run > Run Module (F5)
    :)[color=blue]

    IDLE 1.1 is pretty good. If you have chance grab it :)

        Hi Pavel,

        I had the same issue with IDLE 1.03 running on Python 2.3.4 with WinMe.
        (Please pity me.)

        Yesterday I installed Python 2.4, and the included version of IDLE (1.1)
        has solved this for me. Try Menu->Options->Configure IDLE->General
        tab->Initial Window size. That option never did anything for me with
        IDLE 1.03, but with 1.1, works like a charm.

        HTH,

        Brian vdB
