    while True:
        number = random.randint(0, helpingStringLength - 1)
        if number not in partsToNumerize:
            partsToNumerize.append(number)
            break
 
generatedPassword = ""
for index in range(0, helpingStringLength):
    if index in partsToNumerize:
        generatedPassword += str(len(helpingString[index]))
    else:
        generatedPassword += helpingString[index][0]
 
print "Generated password:   %s" % generatedPassword

And this is how to use it, using parameters:

$ python lipg.py "Your helping string"
...

And how to use it, using no parameters:

$ python lipg.py
Enter helping string: Your helping string
...

And if you want to get rid of the "python" in the beginning, you can chmod it:

$ chmod +x lipg.py
$ ./lipg.py "Your helping string"
...
$ ./lipg.py
Enter helping string: Your helping string
...
