read from standard input

[Siva B]

Hi Chris,
Thanks for you reply.
The error log is here for my above program in windows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\t1.py", line 3, in <module>
    orig_source = sys.stdin.read()
AttributeError: read


Regards,
Siva
