Hi, I'm having problems getting a pound sign to go through as input
sent to the raw_input() command. I'm running Python 2.5.1 on Windows
XP. Here's my simple little script:
while True:
response = raw_input("Please enter a file name: ")
if os.path.exists(response):
break
Problem is if the filename has a "#" in it, the script interprets that
as the beginning of a comment (not sure why -- isn't raw_input
supposed to treat the user's input as raw text and not do any sort of
evals?)
Any ideas how to get a # to go through? Thanks!
