I have a python program called myresolver.py, which takes 1 command line argument. I want this python program to run like ./myresolver argument_name. Can I please know how to do this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

simply add the correct shebang at the beginning of your myresolver.py file:
#!/usr/bin/python
and add the executable flag to the file:
$ chmod a+x myresolver.py
$ ./myresolver.py argument_name

In general you need to be wary of version issues to avoid silent failures. Sometimes "#!env python2.7" or similar might be more appropriate.

That's true. And you should check for en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix) to clearly understand how shebang works.
