raw_input / console I/O question

[Hugh]

I am using python 2.3 through the PythonWin program on windows. I
would like to create a console-based interactive session. The program
raw_input is almost exactly what I'd like, except that whenever I call
raw_input(), it pops up a window on my screen. I'd much rather have
it read from the interactive window.

Is there something out there, as easy as raw_input(), that I can use?

Thanks for any clues!

I'd suggest that you then run the program /from/ a console (command
shell or whatever M$ calls it).

raw_input is almost exactly what I'd like, except that whenever I call

it read from the interactive window.

PythonWin isn't a "console" -- it's a text area in a graphical
interface, and not connected to "stdin".

Is there something out there, as easy as raw_input(), that I can use?

As stated, don't /run/ from PythonWin... Do the editing, save the file
(don't need to exit PythonWin, just save), and invoke it from a command
console.
