Hello, Thanks for your help.
I know what SystemExit is. In 2.5 as well SystemExit is raised when sys.exit() is called. For example: try: import sys sys.exit(0) except SystemExit: print "system exit raised" raise But I don't understand why the interpreter does not exit in 2.6 but does exit in 2.5. Well, I do not need to understand that but I need to know how to get the interpreter to exit in 2.6. Regards, Krishnan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
