I am running my Twitter>>Wiki bots in infinite loops but can't find an easy way to turn them off gracefully once I have started them. At the moment I have to go into the terminal window where they are running and type "Ctrl-C". (I am running Ubuntu 8.10 and python 2.5.2)
I was thinking that I could get the bot script to read a text file at the start of the main loop and have a separate script writing the "exit" order to the same text file.... but before I get too involved with this I wanted to know if there was an built-in function to switch scripts on and off. Any help or assistance much appreciated. Payo _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
