Well, I'm embedding python in an old C console app. This app uses a

I want to allow the execution of arbitrary python statements inside
some of these records. I was hoping there was an easy way to set the
statement terminator. I will simply make up a new terminator and do
some string substitution to turn my new terminator into python's ';'.
You refer to it here as a statement terminator, but in
the first posting you called it a statement separator.
I believe it is just a separator, not a terminator, and
as such is not even required unless you need/want to have
two statements on the same line.
In all the tens of thousands of lines of Python code
I've written, I don't believe I've ever used a single
semicolon to separate two statements.
Perhaps you don't need them either...
