That is the actual code I am using in a file named 'ex.py'. My Worker files are also named with a '.py' extension. When I run my 'ex.py' through a command prompt, the 'Worker1.py' is executed in the same command prompt and starts an infinite loop. It never gets to the 'Worker2.py' part. But I want my Workers to be executed in different command prompts. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
