You mentioned Ubuntu and Windows so a _bash_ script is not of much use here. However Python is platform independent. The problem is that I am not sure whether Ubuntu has a Python install. A default Windows install certainly does not have a Python installation.
From a Ubuntu terminal enter "python" and see what comes up...
If you have got it, post the version that is installed on your Ubuntu setup.
You will have to install the same version onto your Windows machine.
If neither have an install then I suggest you install the latest stable Python release which is version 3.3.2, I think...
