Beginner's question...

[Power-Tech]

Hey guys,
Thank you very much for the answers....I loved this group and I'll
definitely stick around to share your expertise!
I used the solution mentioned by Jeff:
At the very end of your script, add this line: raw_input("Press Enter to
Finish")
But I also will keep all others in mind.
Yesterday (friday) I got the book "python blible" and I am inmersing myself
in it. This is my first serious atempt to learn a programming language (I
know HTML and some PHP/MySql), but I think Phyton is the way to go for a
fisrt full programming language, right?
Have a great weekend you all,
Willie, NY
