You can also make the interpreter enter the REPL by setting PYTHONINSPECT, which works for the current process since this gets checked at exit. import os os.environ['PYTHONINSPECT'] = '1' Or use subprocess.Popen to start a new cmd shell attached to the current console: import subprocess subprocess.Popen('cmd.exe') -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
