Win 7.
Some time ago, I believe under Tutor, it was suggested when quitting to
move the method I described.
Ah, I see what happened!
I had used this in something of an earlier incarnation of the program
when some tkinter code was in use. There was a loop in the code, and the
quit code used there crept into the finish here.
Yes, no need to fiddle with the finish. Just let it reach the end.

What on earth for? If the program is complete, just quit.
In my opinion, there is very little worse than setting up a chain of
long-running programs to run overnight, then coming back in the morning
expecting that they will all be finished only to discover that one of
those programs is stupidly sitting them with a "Press any key to quit"
message, stopping all the rest from running.
In my opinion, such behaviour should be a shooting offense.
*wink*
If no is selected for
the yes/no prompt, warning messages appear in the shell window. I'm
executing from IDLE. Is there a way to just return to the>>> prompt
there?
def finish():
print; print "Bye"
print
raw_input('Press Enter to quit')
sys.exit()
What yes/no prompt? How do you select No?
