What is that you are callind "Python Windows"? What version of Python
are you running?

2.X: print "Hello World"
should work.

3.X: print is now a function,
print("Hello World")
should work.

If that gets you going: read the tutorial that belongs to the version
of Python that you are using.
If it doesn't, come back here with a bit more detail.

BTW, don't indent your first line. Make sure it starts in column 1.

HTH,
