No, because that would make it impossible to write a sane command-line app. Imagine if running 'ls' always created a *new* console window into which its results would be written... following which that console window would immediately close. That's what happens if a Windows GUI app creates its own console later. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
