I know, I'm a total noob (started yester day) But when I enter this code:
x = 1
if x>0:
??? a = raw_input ("Type something in...I will echo it:")
??? print a
??? x=x+1
it does not loop..am I missing something here?

Yes, a loop.
Python has two loop constructs: for and while.

If you replace the if test with a while test it will do what you want I think.
while x>0:

Except that it will never stop looping!
You might want to consider putting a mechanism for stopping in there :-)

But any reasonable tutorial for beginners should cover loops.

Try mine for example... :-)
