Hi,
So far, I know about raw_input as a way to get something from the keyboard into 
my program. My question is this. Let's say I am trying to subtract time from a 
value as though someone is thinking and they want to type in a move. If my 
program prints a prompt to the screen, while the person is thinking, is it 
still running, or is it asleep?

Another way to put this is, can my program use one of the functions in datetime 
to keep ticking off seconds for itself, but not show them to the user while 
it's waiting for input, or do I need to simply check the time after they type 
their move in, then update the clock at that point?

Thanks.

Jim
