add section on how to run scripts in blender for the API intro, found there were no simple docs like this in the wiki.

also set the window type to normal on start when -p argument is given, since the view could be maximized/fullscreen.

+Running Scripts
+---------------
+
+The two most common ways to execute python scripts are using the built-in text editor or entering commands in the python console.
+
+Both the **Text Editor** and **Python Console** are space types you can select from the view header.
+
+Rather then manually configuring your spaces for Python development, you may prefer to use the **Scripting** screen, included default with Blender, accessible from the top headers screen selector.
+
+From the text editor you can open ``.py`` files or paste then from the clipboard, then test using **Run Script**.
+
+The Python Console is typically used for typing in snippets and for testing to get immediate feedback, but can also have entire scripts pasted into it.
+
+Scripts can also run from the command line with Blender but to learn Blender/Python this isn't essential.
