thunderfoot's workaround should work well, but requires changing the
script.

If you want IDLE environment, but don't mind running IDLE from the
command line, you can do the following:

idle.py -r scriptname.py this is a test

The script will run inside IDLE's shell with sys.argv set as you would
expect. The output will go to IDLE's shell, and once the script is
done running the shell will become interactive.

(idle.py is usually found in your Python installation under Lib/
idlelib/)
