Because the two-liner doesn't do what input() does. Testing it at the
interactive interpreter gives me:
py> def myinput():
.... sys.stdout.write("Name? ")
.... return sys.stdin.readline()
....
py> x = myinput()
Steve
py> ? py>
The output isn't displayed until the input is entered, and then the
prompt messes it up.
Well, I forgot about a flush(). Now this is just a three-liner.
fout.write('Name? ')
fout.flush()
name = fin.readline()
There's no support for arrow keys, even when readline is available:
My name^[[D^[[C^[[D
Did you check that arrow keys are supported with the proposed PR?
