When I do the following:

gui = input("Whats your name?")
print gui
Sleep(1000)

I can input my name, but the program then closes.  
Are there any includes or return 0's like in C++?  
Could the above code be my entire program?  It 
seems like I need to start or end the program 
somehow...  Well thanks, sorry if the answer to this is 
already here.  I didn't see anything like it.  And where 
are the forums?

Thanks again.

This doesn't appear to be a bug, but that you don't
understand how python works.  Is that correct?  If so, there
are several places to ask for help, including the
comp.lang.python newsgroup, python-help@python.org or
tutor@python.org.  You may also want to visit 
http://python.org/doc/Newbies.html

You can "include" other modules with the import statement. 
There is a return statement similar to C.  The code above
can be your entire program in python.
If this is truly a bug, I'm sorry I misunderstood.  Please
close this bug report if it's not a bug though.  Thanks, and
welcome to Python! :-)

Closing as invalid since the OP never responded to Neal's 
question as to whether this was an actual bug or just not 
understanding how 
something worked.
