Simple calls to Python functions from command line or shortcut « ActiveState Code

I had thought that Python was like other scripting/interpreted languages I know like VBA or VBScript, JavaScript, Matlab, or Scheme in that i could just call a function form command line and easily pass arguments  without breaking a sweat of any kind. Turns out that you have to jump through some hoops to run Python. In ArcCatalog, PyDev, or IDLE.there are some nice GUI interfaces that allows you to define inputs and everything and then run your script. Fortunately, I have found a website that gives you code for  easily calling a Python function. I haven't really figured out how to use it butr i want to make a note of it for future use.
