run this file (test.py) as:
def finish():
print '\n', "bye", '\n'
raw_input('Press Enter to quit: ')
finish()
$python -i test.py
A second approach could be:
def finish():
import os, subprocess
print '\n', "bye", '\n'
raw_input('Press Enter to quit: ')
subprocess.call('python')
finish()
$python test.py
bye
Press Enter to quit:
