Directly after running a Python program the cursor key does not work and the soft key more in the Program menu triggers a reboot.
If you press directly after the Python program the Home button and then Program (Shift 1) again, there are no errors.

I’ve just tried this with a very short Python program, but didn’t experience the problem. (From my experience playing around with the UI of the Python app, my general impression is that it seems that some needed initialization is missing within parts of the Python app’s implementation, as changing the order in which views are visited, and the presence / absence of data, affects the app’s behaviour. [Whether it reboots / hangs or not.] Entering a bit of source code, turning off the calculator / visiting other views [such as Help, or pressing the Views key] can help get it towards working properly.)

I've found that the bug only occurs when using Python's input() method. Here's an example:

Code:

#PYTHON name
a = 'Python'
a = input('Input a word: ')
print(a)
#end
EXPORT input_bug()
BEGIN
  PRINT;
  PYTHON(name);
END;

If you remove or comment out the line "a = input('Input a word: ')", the error does not occur.
