As I have been on a "curses" kick lately, I wonder if it would work for you? Of course this means another module, but it is in the standard lib on all non-Windows Python versions. For Windows I found this thread on stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32417379/what-is-needed-for-curses-in-python-3-4-on-windows7 The checked answer gives a link to binaries for Windows, which seems to support all Python versions through 3.7, including 2.7. Just a thought... -- boB _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
