Newbee question about running a script

Hello, I've just installed Python 2.7 on Windows 7 I've been able to write and run a script "Hello world" I wonder how I could specify a parameter on the command line from within the interpreter. Specifying a parameter on the DOS command line is no problem. Any hint, please ? -- http://mail.py

Newbee Question

This is probably a simple code. I am a truck driver who gets paid by stops and cases. I am trying to figure out how to code my stop pay. I get 40 cents per stop up to 22 stops, and $1.40 per stops after that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The script could be SUID Root, and you could use os.setuid immediately after having performed the task to switch to a non-priviledged user. May be a big security risk, if someone can alter the script, he gains root access to the system... [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > hello, > > i am writing a pyth
