Jed, I changed the settings back to ...Interpreter>execute in current interpreter, because this is the configuration that was causing the problem. Then I used the commands you said to get 'C:\\winpython\\WinPython-64bit-2.7.5.1\\python-2.7.5.amd64\\python.exe.' Then I went to Preferences>Console>Advanced (Console instead of Editor) and the path to python interpreter and executable binary was pointing to the same file, but with single backslash instead of double. It seems like they are both pointing to the same place.
I tried switching between Run>Interpreter>execute in current interpreter, and Run>Interpreter>execute in new interpreter, and confirmed that the first setting (current interpreter) gives the NameError error and the second one (new interpreter) is OK.
