Apparently Wing isn't as savvy as IDLE when it comes to communicating
with the subprocess. I've only searched for about a minute, but
apparently the way this works in Wing is to "Restart Shell":

This kills the suprocess and starts a new interpreter. Crude, but it
should get the job done.

Thanks. I'll put stackoverflow on my bookmarks.

Beware though, while there are often some very good answers on Stackoverflow, 
there are also very many people who are nowhere near as knowledgeable as they 
think, giving terrible answers, and still having large scores. (One particular 
person comes to mind, I forget his name but he has a *very* high score which 
means lots of people are voting for his answers, and yet every time without 
exception I've seen him reply to someone he has been rude, missed the entire 
point of their question, or given them bad advice. Or all three at once.)

Personally, I think Stackoverflow is a great resource for experienced Python 
programmers who can separate the wheat from the chaff, but only a moderately 
okay resource for beginners :-)
