Non-blocking (which your example here doesn't even do) isn't the same thing as character-at-a-time. It doesn't even imply it, technically - you could want to do other stuff and occasionally check if the user has entered a line, though *that* is even *more* involved on Windows because it means you can't do it with msvcrt.kbhit. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
