Once you've got the >>> prompt you're executing python words, not file system file names.


IDLE is a development environment and is not a run environment. Further, IDLE is or has been known to suffer from various 'leaks' that contribute to oddities when made to do as you're asking, so even when you do get it going, it's not a stable platform.
