(Sorry this is my third send, but I'm not seeing it on the list and not sure if
it's even
getting to where I'd sending it even though I'm getting no error messages)
Hi all,
I'm trying to learn to program (on my own and online since I'm poor as dirt).
<mutter>
I got Eric running (version 4.5.0) with python 2.6.5 on my openSUSE 11.3
system.
Here's the problem:
I did this small example in eric:
print "Halt!"
user_reply = raw_input("Who goes there? ")
print "You may pass,", user_reply
I saved it as halt.py, then in the bottom of eric I clicked on the 'terminal'
tab and
typed in 'python halt.py' (w/out the quotes of course). I was *supposed* to get
halted,
and asked who goes there. Instead there is nothing, just a blinking cursor
waiting for
something. I entered my name for the heck of it and here's what I got:
john@home:~> python halt.py
john
Halt!
Who goes there? You may pass, john
If I open up a konsole (I use KDE), it works as expected and I'm told to halt
and asked
who goes there, I enter my name and I'm told I may pass.
Is there something wrong with the 'terminal' part of eric? I even 'reset'
everything to
stock and it still does it. Is the 'terminal' not supposed to be used like
konsole? Anyone
have any idea what I'm doing wrong and a way to fix it so I don't have to have
a konsole
open *and* eric?
Thanks,
John
