For interest, I tried using cmd.exe instead of python.exe (but didn't try redirection). Ironically, the dialog that is thrown up is "friendlier" - it says "windows needs your permission to continue" with a nice shield icon, but using python.exe is a little scarier, with a yellow bar, no shield icon, and saying "an unidentified program ...". Still, the latter identifies 'python.exe' (as opposed to 'Windows Command Processor'). *sob* :) > How about 'unattended' ?

I've used that - and noticed that specifying a hwnd centers the dialog over the window, which is a good usability cue, so I've also added support for a 'hwnd' flag defaulting to winxpgui.GetConsoleWindow()/0 (update cvs :) Comments on the attached updated patch invited. > I'm just about done with the changes for building win32api with > UNICODE, > but I don't think I'm going to commit them before the next release. Actually I'd be inclined to go for it if you are fairly confident and put it through some reasonable smoke tests. I've previously said the next pywin32 build will be considered experimental/unstable, so I'd like to be conservative about build 212 (in the aim of getting a new solid pywin32 release out less than 2 years before the last one <frown>) It looks like I'll be at pycon 2008 too - I'd love to collect and/or buy some beers for anyone who can make it ;) Cheers, Mark
