The comment in "nntplib.py" says that if the connection is closed, an "EOFError" will be raised (that's the error you get). In the interpreter you type in first the line "s = NNTP('news.gmane.org')" which opens the connection. Then you type in the "s.group"-line which is rather long and you are probably not typing fast enough. Meanwhile the connection to the gmane-Server is closed and that's why you get the "EOFError". In your script there is no problem because there is no delay between those two lines. Try to copy the lines of your script into your interpreter shell and you shouldn't get the error (don't type them manually, use copy & paste!).
