[pygame] Re: pygame pause

[Peter Shinners <pete@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are two ways to do it. The simple way it so start a pygame loop 
that waits for the user to do something. This is easy, but it means all 
animations will be stopped. When the game pauses, call a function like 
this to wait for the user to press another key

def PauseUntilKeyboard():
   while 1:
      e = pygame.event.wait()
      if e.type in (pygame.QUIT, pygame.KEYDOWN):
         return
