How did you run this on Linux? How did you run it on Windows? It looks 
like you're running it from within IDLE. I don't know IDLE at all, and 
don't know how to pass data to its standard input -- can you let us know 
what arguments you're using?

I've tried sys.stdin.read() from inside IDLE on Linux, and it gives me 
the same error.
