This is a notoriously un-cross-platform sort of issue. Don't know about Tk, but for Windows, you could use one of the existing console/curses packages: Chris Gonnerman's WConIO: http://newcenturycomputers.net/projects/wconio.html The effbot's console module: http://effbot.org/zone/console-index.htm or a Win32 curses port: http://flangy.com/dev/python/curses/ or you could splash out a bit and go for Pygame, which gives you pretty much complete control over pretty much everything: http://pygame.org or you could use the part-of-the-batteries mscvrt module: http://www.python.org/doc/2.4/lib/msvcrt-console.html TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
