[Tutor] Newbie question

[Liam Clarke-Hutchinson]

Ooer, weird keystrokes... my apologies Bob.
 
>This is preferred, since any exception traceback will remain visible.
 
That's a really good point... I believe associating a  Python batch file
using pause would allow tracebacks to remain also.
 
@echo off
c:\Python24\Python %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
pause
 
or similar...

Hi Eric, 
 
Either - 
 
add this line to the end of your scripts -
discard = raw_input("Press enter to finish.")
 
Or - 
 
Click on Start > Run... type cmd.exe and use DOS to move to the directory
where your scripts are stored and run them via Python there.



 It's not trivial when you're starting. :-)

I am trying to follow some online first timer tutorials, and I am writing
the practice scripts in notepad (only w32 at work :-()..   I save the script
with a .py extension, and when I run it it opens for a brief moment in a
command prompt then closes before I even have a chance to see what it says.
This may seem trivial, but Python also happens to be my first language so
this is all new to me.    Using Python 2.4.2





  

Thanks for any help.





  

Erik
