Wait, are you asking about making a command-line interface in Python? If so, then there are a number of aspects you can google for: - command line argument parsing. See python docs on argparse - A read/eval print loop using custom keywords and syntax, if you want your program to be interactive. - you'll need to use readline to handle line editing - something to parse line input. PyParsing perhaps. Or some other lexical parser, or manually do the parsing you need to do with .split() or regular expressions. - possibly curses for doing screen output, though print() is probably sufficient. Except for pyparsing everything is in the standard library. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
