How do you access the command line from the

on unix:

type python

 >>> print 'hey'
'hey'

If you're interactive, I'd just use standard process/job control, and hit control+Z to suspend and "fg" to resume:

  t...@rubbish:~$ python
  Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Nov 19 2009, 19:46:21)
  [GCC 4.3.4] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> print 'hello'
  hello
  >>> # (hitting ^Z here instead of typing this command)
  [1]+  Stopped                 python
  t...@rubbish:~$ ls tmp/[xyz]*.py
  tmp/x.py  tmp/xyz.py
  t...@rubbish:~$ fg
  python
  print 'world'
  print 'world'
  world
  >>>


-tkc
