Python 3.1 and Sublime Text 2 error

Question

I want to use a SublimeText2 as IDE for developing applications in Python.

I have the following problem :

When I make a new file, save it as a python and do Tools -> Build System -> Python CTRL + B

I get this error:

Please type your name and press enter: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/strielok/Desktop/hello.py", line 1, in <module>
    personsname = raw_input("Please type your name and press enter: ")
EOFError: EOF when reading a line
[Finished]

Here is the code of the program:

 personsname = raw_input("Please type your name and press enter: ")
    print "Hello " +personsname

However when I run this code from terminal (I am on Mac), it works perfectly.

Any idea what the problem might be ?

Answer 1

Install sublimeREPL and then choose Tools->sublimerepl->python .

Answer 2

Taken from Sublime Text's forums, seems that stdin will not be connected with anything so it's expected.

Answer 3

I've written a plugin which allows builds in sublime text to take input. It's a bit rough around the edges, but it works on my machine.
