Since your program never reads in the data on stdin, your "enter\n" just sits there waiting to be read, and select always inform you of that fact by returning stdin in the rr list.
If you want select to start blocking again, you must read all bytes from stdin whenever select says there are bytes to be read. Gary Herron -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
