Your windows command shell prompt looks like this: "C:\Python32>"
It indicates that windows shell is waiting for you to type something.
It expects the first word you type to be an executable command. If you
do this:
  C:\Python32>python g:\work\module1.py
it tells the shell to run the python interpreter and feed it all the
python statments contained in the file g:\work\module1.py

If you do this:
  C:\Python32>python
it tells the shell to run the python interpreter interactively, and
wait for you to directly type python statements. When the python
intepreter is ready for you to type a python statement, it gives you a
">>>" prompt. It expects you to type a valid python language
statement.

The reason this gave an error:
>>> python g:\work\module1.py

is because you are using the python interpreter as shown by ">>>", but
you typed a windows shell command, not a python statement.
