Running DrPython on OS X

[hebertodelrio]

Hi there, I want to run drpython in my iMac OS X 10.4.6 it has python 2.5 and wxPython 2.8.0 downloaded from pythonmac.org/packages

When I run python drpython.pyw or python drpython.py I get the same error

> python drpython.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "drpython.py", line 4013, in <module>
    main()

wx._core.PyAssertionError: C++ assertion "status == noErr" failed at /BUILD/wxPython-src-2.8.3.0/src/mac/carbon/font.cpp(378) in MacFindFont(): couldn't modify ATSU style

Could anyone help me explain what all this mean and fix the proble so I can live happily ever after

Thanks a lot

I'm sorry, but you are the first tester on OSX (I don't have one)

It seems, the font is not found.

C:\Eigene Dateien\python\drpython\drPreferences.py
about line 493:
        self.sourcebrowserstyle = "fore:#FF0000,back:#FFFFFF,size:10,face:Sans Serif"
What if you try to replace all the default fonts in DrPyhton, which gives error
and try again
(You could take a look at the wxPython demo and choose a font you like).
It would be nice to let us know and maybe apply that patch then to DrPython.

I will definitely do it, thanks a lot
