[Tutor] Calling Modules in ActiveState 2.4

[Bob Nienhuis]

When I do:
import sys
sys.exit(0)
I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\scintilla\bindings.py",
line 141, in fire
rc = apply(binding.handler, args)
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\interact.py",
line 478, in ProcessEnterEvent
if self.interp.runsource(source, "<interactive input>"): # Need more input!
File "C:\Python24\lib\code.py", line 87, in runsource
self.runcode(code)
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\interact.py",
line 257, in runcode
exec code in self.globals, self.locals
File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?
SystemExit: 0
