Either way is OK. It helps to quote a bit of the post to which you are

Hey, guys, forgive me; I can't help being a fool. Just now I READ the
program and it worked perfectly! 42 is more than 1 so it printed
"More". My error was that I imagined there was a loop where no loop
could be. Oh, me; oh, my.

I'm maintaining a framework of tests which are run on a diskless Linux
client, in character mode (no graphical desktop).
The tests often print out a lot of info, which scrolls off the screen.
I'd like to add a 1-2 line no-scroll-area at the top of the screen, so as to

Hello,
I'm a beginner Python user and I have simple python issue I can't seem

string is contained within it. I found that typically the re module has

I'll take a peek at the subprocess docs Steve, and see if I can learn
something there... Thanks for the suggestion!
I'm using WinXP as well Wayne.. Not too sure why yours works, and mine
doesn't.. I'll revisit what I'm doing and also check into Steve's
suggestion.

What OS are you using, Adrian? On WinXP, this worked fine:
import os
def files():
os.startfile('myfile.txt')
os.remove('myfile.txt')

Thanks for the input folks. Sadly, Tim's suggestion yields the same results
as I was getting previously. My second program very graciously tells me
that the file I'm trying to open doesn't exist. Like the code snippet I

No, use input() only in very special circumstances or when
experimenting

BTW, I hope you're using raw strings in your
real code, or else you're going to come a
cropper one day when a filename begins with "t".
