There are several ways to do this, depending on your preferences and 
goals.  Is the helloworld script the tk version?  In which case have the 
script put up input dialog boxes...

The python docs pages are very clear about input parameter i/o and may 
give you some help, if you're building a script that you want to launch 
from a terminal, or startup...

What I do with my IDLE scripts is embed to embed a Main function (or 
call it Hello().  So, I import hello, then call hello.Main(parms).  or, 
  hello.Hello(parms)

example

====file hello.py===

def Hello(parms list):
     whatever
     whatever

====================


 From IDLE:

import hello

hello.Hello([1, 2, 3, 4])
