You still have code indented incorrectly...
if __name__ == '__main__':
start()
print
raw_input('press return')
else:
print 'Module guessgame imported'
print 'to run, type:guessgame.start()'
print 'to refresh, type:reload (guessgame)'
Should be indented like so:
#guessgame********** (1/20/08)
from random import randint
def start():
answer=randint(1,101) #the answer
guessnum=0 #number of user guesses
guess=input('''I am thinking of a number that is in between 1 and 100''')#the current guess of the user
while guess != answer:
guessnum=guessnum+1
if guess > 100:
print '''that guess is way too high, the answer has to be 100 or lower'''
guess=input ('''guess again please, within the limit this time''')
elif guess == 0:
print 'actually zero is not within the 1-100 range'
guess=input('guess again please')
elif guess < 0:
print 'are you testing me?'
guess=input('guess again, in the positives please')
elif guess > 0 and guess < 100 and guess < answer:
print 'that guess is below the answer'
guess=input('try guessing again')
elif guess >0 and guess < 100 and guess > answer:
print 'guess lower, your answer is to high'
guess=input('try once more')
if guess == answer:
print 'congratualtions, that took', guessnum, 'tries'
if __name__ == '__main__':
start()
print
raw_input('press return')
else:
print 'Module guessgame imported'
print 'to run, type:guessgame.start()'
print 'to refresh, type:reload (guessgame)'
#end game
raw_input('press enter to quit')
And what in the world are you talking about with "remotely opening the file"?
Again... just use IDLE and run it from there. As simple as that...
