And if you run your code using the -i switch, a la: python -i mycode.py Python will open the interpreter in interactive mode after it hits sys.exit() (or any uncaught exception), with the full state of the program up to that point available. Which can be very handy during testing for ensuring that your expectations of that state are correct. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
