This seems to have been fixed now in the latest release. I upgraded from 
  2.8.0.1 (if it ain't broke...) to 2.8.8.1, to verify that I could see 
the error....and I could. I then upgraded to the new 2.8.9.0 release and 
I was able to start both the code and resource editors. I haven't done 
much beyond that though.

Windows XP + Python 2.5 + wxPython 2.8.9.0 (ansi) + PythonCard 0.8.2.
