I agree that it should and it doesn't. I also recall that not having empty lines between function/class definitions can cause indentation errors when pasting to the console on my windows machine.

Currently if you work in console and define a function and then immediately call it - it will fail with SyntaxError. For example, copy paste this completely valid Python script into console:

def some(): print "XXX" some() There is an issue for that that was just closed by Eric. However, I'd like to know if there are people here that agree that if you paste a valid Python script into console - it should work without changes. -- anatoly t.
