You won't be able to start another wx.App instance. Instead you'll just=20=

move whatever app initialization you need and make your own wx.Frames=20
child windows of the main PythonCard background which can be created=20
during the openBackground event handler. For example, here's a simple=20
addition to the minimal sample using PythonCard 0.7.3.1 syntax.

import wx

class Minimal(model.Background):
     def on_openBackground(self, event):
         self.rawWx =3D wx.Frame(self, -1, 'plain wxPython window',=20
pos=3D(100, 30), size=3D(200, 100))
         self.rawWx.Show()
=00
You could subclass model.PythonCardApp, call its __init__ as part of=20
your __init__ and then do the rest of your initialization there.
