Multiple threads interacting with stdin/stdout? I've done it with 2 queues. One for feeding the threads input and one for them to use for output. In fact, using queues takes care of the serialization problems generally associated with many threads trying to access a single resource (e.g. stdout). Python Queues are thread-safe so you don't have to worry about such issues. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
