I would like to suggest changing some of the .bat scripts for Eric on Windows. I am using Eric5, but i think the same applies to Eric4. The problem with the eric5.bat is the following:
> While running a command line program or some GUI initiated from command > line on Windows, there is always a black console window on the screen. This > sometime becomes annoying. For example, when you start the Eric Python IDE > on Windows, normally you start it by calling a batch file “eric4.bat” which > calls the actual eric4.py script sequentially. Since Eric4 is designed to be > a GUI program, the black console window has no use but it is there. > http://9rivers.linkka.com/2010/07/29/hide-the-command-console-window-while-running-a-guicommand-line-program-on-windows/ I found a way to start eric5.bat without the console window: > @echo off > rem Start Eric5 with command line parameters > set CURRDIR=%~dp0 > start "%CURRDIR%\pythonw.exe" "%CURRDIR%\Lib\site-packages\eric5\eric5.pyw" > %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 > This is not only hiding console window. It also uses relative pathes. So it makes .bat scripts more portable.
