I'm a newbie and I was wonderring how you saved Python code?

Hey guys I was just wondering if I got this straight. I write python code in any old editor like vi. Then I save the file like this "filename.py"? Then I import the file to the python interpreter. Now when I save the file does it matter where? and when I go to import it to the python interpreter do I give it the full pathname? For example if I saved filename.py in my /usr/local dir, when i go to import the file do I have to type import /usr/local/filename.py or is it just import filename.py. Once the file is imported to the python interpreter, how do i execute it?? If you can help me in anyway it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

AFAIK, all you have to do is run:

That's the normal way of running scripts. i.e. if I have myscript.py in the current directory, I should be able to use:

to run it. Also, unless you're looking for spamming hellfire to come down on you, you might want to take your email address out of the post. It'll get indexed by some Bad Guy eventually if you leave it
