Hi Pierre,
Thanks for the reply, but I am not on Unix and it even if I was that
solution it does not achieve the desired results.
I want the script to decide whether to fall back to the interactive prompt.
You solution makes it ALWAYS fall back to the interactive prompt.
I want to do something like:
try:
# execute code
except MyExceptionOccurred, except_msg:
# fall to interactive prompt.
In other words I want to have my program to determine whether the
interactive prompt to be displayed or not.
Thanks!
