By using proper syntax... :*) To pass parameters, you do it when *starting* python[*]. Thus, you'd use something like c:\test\> python -i using_sys.py test1 test2 test3 or [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp> python -i using_sys.py test1 test2 test3 from your *system* command-prompt/shell (not the python shell) which will (with the "-i" parameter) leave you in the *python* command interpreter/shell. -tkc [*] yes, you can write to the sys.argv to make them what you want for testing purposes, but that's intentionally and purposefully prevaricating about the meaning of "argv". Best left for when it's what you really mean to do. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
