I tried that and it doesn't work!
I type the name and it just sits there!
Here's the code:
# variables
name = "JOTEX "
versn = "0.1"
# end variables
print name + versn
def intro():
    print """JOTEX is a very simple command based text editor with a 
maximum of
6 lines (counting up though). Similar to early version of TEX."""

def commands():
    print """\nThe following commands are:
    \jn$ for a new line.
        Ex: Hello!\jn$  then Hi again! returns:
            Hello!
            Hi again!
    \jq$ for quiting the program at any prompt.
    \js$ for saving (feature not currently available)
No more commands.
"""
    main()
def l6():
    l6 = raw_input("")
    print
    print
    save()
    main()
def l5():
    l5 = raw_input("")
    l6()
def l4():
    l4 = raw_input("")
    l5()
def l3():
    l3 = raw_input("")
    l4()
def l2():
    l2 = raw_input("")
    l3()
def l1():
    l1 = raw_input("")
    l2()
def main():
    intro()
    print "\nYou may want to see the commands. Type \jhc for 
commands.\nPress\
'Enter' (Return) to begin a document"
    prompt = raw_input(">>> ")
    if "\jhc$" in prompt:
        commands()
    elif "\jq$" in prompt:
        raise SystemExit
    else:
        print "\n\n\n"
        l1()
def save():
    import cPickle as p
    file_name = "test.txt"
    f = file(file_name, 'w')
    all = [l1(), l2(), l3(), l4(), l5(), l6()]
    p.dump(all, f)
    f.close()
    main()

main()

Hi all,
        How could I have the user name his file? I learned that I 
type file_name = "foo.bar"
How could I make it that the use could name it "hello.hi"?

Thanks,
        Joe
        Well, all you have to do is have the user input a string, and 
use this string as the name of the file. The raw_input function 
should allow you to do that.
