Although this isn't a very good solution, it does work (in windows at least).

You could create a batch file with the following contents:

@echo off
for %%x in (%cmdcmdline%) do if /i "%%~x"=="/c" set DOUBLECLICKED=1
start 
if defined DOUBLECLICKED pause

If you want to be able to do this with a single file, you could try the following:

@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set LF=^


::  The 2 empty lines are necessary
for %%x in (%cmdcmdline%) do if /i "%%~x"=="/c" set DOUBLECLICKED=1
echo print("first line of python script") %LF% print("second and so on") > %temp%/pyscript.py
start /wait console_title pyscript.py
del %temp%/pyscript.py
if defined DOUBLECLICKED pause
