My client is used to clicking on the script name on her PC and getting a windows command line box which it runs in. Not fancy but did the job until recently...
Now it can take up to 4 minutes for the file dialog box to appear. No problems with speed in PythonWin, of course, but she is not used to doing that. Any suggestions? Anyone know why it is so slow? Here is the code snippet to open her input file (output goes in the same directory so we have to get the directory path for that) try: d=win32ui.CreateFileDialog(1) d.DoModal() inputpath=d.GetPathName() inputsplit=string.split(inputpath,"\\") inputdir = string.join(inputsplit[:-1],"\\") inputname=d.GetFileName() if printit: print "input file is ",inputname try: input = open(inputname,"r") # expects text to mark up except: print "Error opening input file",inputname if inputname: print "Invalid Input File ",inputname line = raw_input() sys.exit(2) (there's another except later in the code ...)
