Apparently Wing isn't as savvy as IDLE when it comes to communicating with the subprocess. I've only searched for about a minute, but apparently the way this works in Wing is to "Restart Shell": http://stackoverflow.com/a/10360503/205580 http://www.wingware.com/doc/debug/interactive-python-shell This kills the suprocess and starts a new interpreter. Crude, but it should get the job done. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
