My guess is that the output is getting buffered and the buffer doesn't get flushed until sometime after the function executes. -- Stand Fast, tjg.

My guess is that the output is getting buffered and the buffer doesn't get flushed until sometime after the function executes. That was indeed the case. I'm using Notepad++ to execute my python scripts, and they have their own little console window. Executing the script directly in a CMD console works fine. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
