Oh, that kind of multi-line input. I thought you were talking about >>> def foo(bar): ... long_statement_here ... even_longer_statement_here ... return something I would just put it into a .py and run it through IDLE, change it, and rerun it. There are probably other IDEs which can already do that, but I just use IDLE. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
