Hi, I think you can use the 'curses' module to catch the keyboard event. The name of the method is 'keyname()'. But I'm afraid curses is not available on Windows Python, so you may have to be a bit more imaginative. I just tried with Python 2.4 on Windows XP.
To leave the while loop, use the 'break' command. Andy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
