[Pythoncard-users] Cannot run some PythonCard tools with pythonw.exe

[Tim B. <tb...@bi...>]

On my system I have made the *.py/*.pyw file associations as the codeEditor
readme indicates, but I have trouble running some of the PythonCard tools
using pythonw.exe.

 

codeEditor: runs fine as a .py but when I change its extension to .pyw and
open it or if I execute the .py file manually with pythonw.exe from command
line, nothing happens, the python interpreter returns immediately. No GUI,
no errors.

 

resourceEditor: runs fine as a .py but when I change its extension to .pyw
and open it or if I execute the .py file manually with pythonw.exe from
command line, the main resource editor window appears but the app is frozen
and won't do anything. I cannot close the app, and must shut down the
process via Windows Task Manager.

 

textEditor: runs fine as a .py and a .pyw both via association and from
command line.

 

Any ideas? I am using Windows XP, Python version 2.3.3, wxPython version
2.4.2.4, PythonCardPrototype version 0.7.2.

 

Thank you!
