>what makes you think that basic Python functions work in radically different ways on different platforms ?
Assumption. Im also new to programing, so could do something stupid like think a Windows path is a command/input/etc. (really, ive done things like that before.) Now, im running this on a terminal, but am acctually writing my scripts in a text editor. How can I get a script to do a sum with the editor? e.g. it asks for a sum, then does it etc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
