You just need to download the file Circle-0.35.pyw and run it like this:

chmod +x Circle-0.35.pyw
./Circle-0.35pyw

The first line you only need to do once to make sure that the file is
executable, the second line runs the program.  In Unix any file can be
executable - if you look at the circle file you'll discover it is just
the program source.  the very first line (#!/usr/bin/python) tells the
system to run that command first, and give it this file to run.
