RE: [Boa Constr] Newbie help please!

[Patrick K. O'B. <po...@or...>]

I posted another message about this, but you might not have seen it. In a
nutshell, a status bar method signature (ie, what parameters are expected)
changed in the wxPython beta. The boa code has not been updated yet. Again,
it is easy to fix. There are two spots in the boa code that call this status
bar method. The Python error message will give you the line number and file
name. Start boa from a dos window to see the complete error message. (C:\>
python boa.py) Simply remove the extra parameters from the method calls.

Hope that helps. (Wish I had documented this when I did it for myself.) Feel
free to write back if it didn't work or if you have further problems.
