I don't understand what you mean by "hide the input with dots". Are you running in a plain console window? (i.e. not IPython Qt console, or Console2, or ConEmu -- let's keep it basic.) Please paste the output in a reply, so everyone can see what you're describing here. > Sorry,that's not an integer.

You should be able to reliably use Ctrl-C with input() in a Windows console. Issue 17619 was resolved in 3.3.2: http://docs.python.org/release/3.3.2/whatsnew/changelog.html P.S. You're running Windows, not DOS. The Windows console is a character-cell window, but otherwise console applications are regular Windows programs. In a GUI app you can even open a console with kernel32 AllocConsole() and open CONIN$ and CONOUT$ for standard I/O. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
