I can't help you with ubuntu, but in windows I use an interactive Python editor to create and run scripts. File management is something that is basic to your operating system and a matter of organization. I usually keep my "test" scripts in one subdirectory, finished scripts in another, and "packages" in unique subdirectories for each package. IDLE comes with Python. Have you tried it?

2. Once you done this you have file opened in the name of myfile.py, then do all your programming stuff in the file.
