Hi Matt, So you really need raw_input ? Couldn't you use a mock-up ? sys.stdout.write('> ') sys.stdout.flush() And get the user input with something like: while self.continue: input = os.read(sys.stdin.fileno(), 80).strip() if input== '': time.sleep(.2) The background thread can stop the listening thread by setting self.continue to False. The subversion trunk of pymc (on google code) has something that I think is similar to your problem, you might want to look at it (look at revision 868).
