I've never programmed before, so I thought I'd try and learn a bit by using some Python tutorials. I started using the tutorial at http://www.honors.montana.edu/~jjc/easytut/easytut/node3.html. It mentioned different forms of Python, specifically Command Line and IDLE. Being inexperienced, I'm not sure how to change from Command Line to IDLE, and I'm not sure which one I'm in when I start up the program. In my Python folder, the only applications I have are python.exe and pythonw.exe. Pythonw.exe won't run. So, I run python.exe, and I'm not sure whether it is IDLE, Command Line, or neither. Also, I'm unsure of how to save programs, considering when I run python.exe, it opens up a window which does not have the little bar with the "File", "Edit", "View" and "Help" buttons on it. If you can help me out at all, thank you.
