It's not compiled, it's interpreted just like Basic. You download the whole source directory, add some data (xxxx.osm) & read the README & work out what it does from there :) Possibly the easiest way (for decent broadband) is to get the whole svn.openstreetmap.org set & browse around to see what's fun.
Other software will need other programs, gosmore for instance wants Java, but you may well have that installed anyway. You tell which compiler from the filename extensions (If you have Windows set to hide these, change it. Now. Apply that change to all folders, too..!) because python uses program.py, java usually program.jar, c++ program.cpp, perl should have some program.perl (but needn't), visual basic program.vbs, etc...
