I have a problem with this piece of code:
====
import sys
for line in sys.stdin:
print "You said!", line
====
Namely, it seems that the stdin buffers the input, so there is no reply until
a huge amount of text has bin written. The iterator returned by xreadlines
has the same behavior.
The stdin.readline() function doesn't share that behaviour (it returns as soon
as I hit 'enter').
??Is there any way to tell stdin's iterator not to buffer the input? Is it
part of the standard file protocol?
