Ugh... | | Off-hand, I'd say NO | | There is no way to tell the python interpreter where the program | ends and the "run data" begins. You *could* jump through a hoop like this one: ListOfInput = ['first input', 'second input', .......'last input'] and then read the elements of the list one by one... You will probably have to make the list global to get it to work... But I kind of agree with Dennis - I would not do it that way either - reading the inputs from the stdin console is easy enough, or if there are just a few of them, getting them as command line arguments is arguably even easier - and if its a whole bunch of stuff that is painstaking to type in every time - put it in a text file and read it line by line. - Hendrik - -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
