You'll probably need to read a quick guide about changing directories in the command prompt. "cd .." takes you up a directory; "cd [directory name]" takes you into another one. Navigate to where the .wav files and script are, then type in "python3 makedoepfer.py [whatever].wav" and it should make the new .syx file.

The good news is that because the program's open source, any other programmers can just dive in and add such features.
