NppExec in Notepad++ not handling sys.stdin

Question

I am having trouble getting NppExec to handle this bit of code:

import sys
for inString in sys.stdin :
    print(inString)

When I type into the console nothing happens, and I have to terminate the process. I get a message that the process is still running. When I run the program from Powershell it works as expected. Is there a way to fix this?

Answer 1

Run the file, type your inputs and tape Ctrlz

Ctrlz closes the standard input (stdin) by sending EOF.
