OK, my new patch does that. At the momment it is buffering for
interactive mode as well as for scripts instead of buffering only for
the latter.

>>> import sys
>>> print('python is flushing when there\' a new line')
python is flushing when there' a new line
>>> print('python is not flushing when new line is gone',end='')
>>> print('')
python is not flushing when new line is gone
>>> ret=sys.stdout.write('python is not flushing when new line is gone')
>>> sys.stdout.flush()
python is not flushing when new line is gone>>><ENTER>
>>> ret=sys.stdout.write('python is flushing when there\s a new line\n')e
python is flushing when there\s a new line
>>>
But, is this really what we want to do? When I run that code:
-----------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(void)
{
char *buf="write() is flushing!";
char *buf2="x";
write(1,buf,strlen(buf));
sleep(3);
write(1,buf2,strlen(buf2));
sleep(3);
// printf("printf() requires a new line to flush");
return 0;
}
--------------------
each write() is writing before sleep() even though there's no flush().
Do we want to ask every programmer to flush everytime there's no new line?
If not, python should flush for every string > 0 bytes, than for
string > 1 byte.

Isn't it rather flushing after each print() or write() call?
