Can't you just run the debugger in a different window and attach to the process you want to debug? That's how one uses a debugger with curses apps written in C/C++. Or I add debugging printf calls which write to stderr and redirect stderr to a file. > My approach is to define a status line at the bottom of my program and > write print statements into that window. Something like: Why not just use the standard python logging facility and log to a file or another terminal window? -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
