If you're looking to debug your program, try "import pdb" and then wherever you want to debug put:
pdb.set_trace() Your program will then enter the debugger when it executes that line. It's quite nice really. If you get confused on what to do, just type "help" http://docs.python.org/library/pdb.html Cheers, Ben Javier Collado wrote: > Take a look either at code.interact or at > IPython.ipapi.launch_new_instance.
