Just run setup.exe again and set it to install on the package chooser.
Python is in the "Python" category. Setup will install it to the correct
location automatically and all you have to do after that is type
python <scriptname>
at a shell prompt. (Or make sure the first line of the script says
#!python
and the script has the +x flag set, and then you can just run it directly by
name at the bash prompt, subject to the usual rules about $PATH).
cheers,
