Using Python on Debian Etch. What is the best way to paste a block of text in at the command prompt.
I'm trying something like: Quote = raw_input("Paste quote here: ") Which works great for one line of text with a single newline. It gets stripped. Okay. Is there a way to paste in a block of text that has multiple lines and newlines? I don't care if they all get stripped in the process, in fact I'd prefer it. I've used strip before, but that doesn't seem to work until you get the text into the program. Thanks for any help. Rick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
