Ok, my issue is this. Overall I need to make a program that spawns a GUI with two list boxes. It will receive an XML file with variables and their data, parse it, and store these variables. It stores the names in one array and their values in another. The program will then set the contents of the list boxes to these arrays, thus creating a constantly updating display of variables and values. I have the parser and storage working, but when I introduce a GUI into the mix things go awry. I made a simple GUI using wxGlade. I run the script it generates and I get the GUI window. However it freezes IDLE and I can't enter any commands into it(IDLE) as I need to do this to call my xmlRead function to start the parse. When I close the GUI window, IDLE crashes. Sometimes when I run the GUI script, it crashes out right. Right now I'm very lost as I'm really a rookie with Linux and have just this year learned the basics of Python. I really need some help figuring out how to get this stuff to run smoothly. FYI I'm running Ubuntu 7.10. Let me know if u need any specifics but keep in mind I'm a little "Linux challenged" so I really appreciate it if u can take the time to give me a dumbed down explanation of what I might do to fix things. I will be willing to try an entirely alternate design. My goal is simply getting these arrays up on a screen(but not using IDLE to do it).
