If your program is written so it doesn't do anything when imported, you could use > python -c "import myprogram"
myprogram.py should have a structure like this:
def main(): # do something...
if __name__ == '__main__': main()
The "if __name__ ..." prevents the module from doing anything when it is imported; main() will only be run when the module is run directly.

Does anyone happen to know how to turn of the syntax checking in python? I've been working on a module driven preprocessor but I'd
like to not have to use comment strings.
So don't use them! They aren't mandatory.
I'm not sure I understand youir problem? Why would turning off syntax checking ever help?

Hi,From the command line, is there a way to run Python against a program so that it stops after it compiles even if the syntax is OK?
Thanks.
