You can use bash here document feature, <<-, that strips heading tab characters but not spaces. #!/bin/bash for i in 1 2 3 4; do python /dev/stdin <<-EOF for i in range($i): print i # two tabs and four spaces EOF done Or alternatively you can use a temporary file: #!/bin/bash TEMPFILE=$(mktemp) trap 'rm -f $TEMPFILE' TERM INT cat > $TEMPFILE <<EOF import sys for i in range(int(sys.argv[1])): print i EOF for i in 1 2 3 4; do python $TEMPFILE $i done -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
