  I meant more in line with the issue of using wx functions before the  
wxApp is initialized. That part should be compatible across versions of  
wx. What I wasn't sure of when I wrote/thought that was how much extra  
changes would be required.

  I understand that, but is conditional code that difficult in Python?   
I ask not to be a wise guy, but I really don't know. I just started  
working with Python last night when trying to get this thing running on  
my system.

  I dunno, I never used the old version.

  Thanks.

  Understandable. I assume they are something like the NSNotification  
objects in MacOS X. Very nice stuff, I use them all the time.

  Anyway, here is the error dump I get:

An unexpected exception has occurred.
Please see the help for details on what to do.
