One method:  install ipython (another python shell, but with some
useful extra features)
and then run the program inside ipython in debug mode:
---------
$ ipython


In [1]: run -d filename.py


Breakpoint 1 at /path/to/filename.py:3
NOTE: Enter 'c' at the ipdb>  prompt to start your script.

ipdb>
--------
(You type c to continue)
--------
ipdb> c
> /path/to/filename.py(3)<module>()
      2
1---> 3 import sys, os
      4 import subprocess

--------
and you can see you're now on line 3.
Press h for help to see what commands you can type.
Press n for next line if you want to step.
Press s to step into a function when it's being called.  Etc.
