I have a trivially simple piece of code called timewaster.py: ____________________________________________________
while True: i = 0 for i in range(10): break _____________________________________________________ It runs fine with Eric but when I try to run it from shell... > ./timewaster.py ./timewaster.py: line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `(' ./timewaster.py: line 4: ` for i in range(10):' I've tried this on openSuse 11.3 and Kubuntu 10.04, both use Python version 2.6.5, both show the above. Before I tear out my hair any more (only 3 left) I thought I'd ask here what I am doing wrong. Best Regards Werner Dahn -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
