If python.exe crashes -- ie exits completely without a traceback, then it's most likely a flaw in the extension module which is capturing the image. If that's the case, there's nothing you can do in Python code to prevent it; you need to work with the project maintainers to fix that. If you're getting a traceback but the console window is then closing too fast for you to see it, then try running the code from an open console window rather than double-clicking on it. (You don't say how you're kicking the code off so I'm offering this just in case) TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
