On OS X, scripts that have a GUI must be launched with pythonw, not python. If your script uses Tkinter or wxPython, for instance, you would (from the terminal) launch it by saying "pythonw foo.py." Running it with "python foo.py" will produce errors simlilar to the ones you are reporting. Not sure if appscript modules can be run interactively with the Python interpreter/shell--has can chime in here. - -- Cheers, Kevin Walzer, PhD WordTech Software - "Tame the Terminal" http://www.wordtech-software.com sw at wordtech-software.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD4DBQFDnxCHJmdQs+6YVcoRAkPuAJ9C1Ulazs2NQtrNFfFqxnrPGbj3PwCWMez3 HkUHJT3LnISQoDU/QL0fzg== =BLI9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
