I posted the following to comp.lang.python a few days ago, but have not
received a good answer yet. I thought that I would try here also.

If I enter the following code (or any other using raw_input for that matter)
into idle's shell it works, when trying to run it from a file (new window,
edit it, save it then run it, nada)

def f():
    x=raw_input("ladida:")
    print x

f()

If typed directly or imported into idle it does work. When doing the
following it did not work (specifically the print statement was never
executed)

Ctrl-N (New Window)
type in the code
Ctrl-S (Save)
F5    (Run module)

The systems involved are a win98 and an nt4 machines, tcl version 8.0.5,
Python 1.5.2. The same code works under the plain Python interactive shell,
and pythonwin, but not idle. Any ideas, or is this just a bug in idle?
