It doesn't ideally handle loops, as it'll go back to the top of the loop - that was my first thought. As it has to go and exec stuff all over again, it's entirely possible it'll have other issues. > I will occasionally paste functions from Python source files into the > interactive interpreter.

Of course, it can't handle a from import, but I wouldn't expect anything to catch those. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
