Actually there is only one step away, that is, pythonw and python. With python, I can import modules by using PyImport_ImportModule("name"). But I have to use pythonw since I used appscript. Then I can not import modules sucessfully with same commands.
If converting C code to python, there will be a lot of changes too because C is strict typed language while python everything is Object. I have to make .so or .dylib in order to allow python code to call C code. That will be still a lot of work.

You don't have to change it all to Python, you just need to refactor it a bit.? Instead of embeding Python from C, you embed C from Python.? Of cours! e, it's better to prefer Python code because there will be less of it, it's not always a good idea to just throw all the old code away.-bob

Hi! Bob?What you suggested is right.?The interesting thing is that I have a lot of old c code which will try to call python code. It is true that I can write pure python code and use py2app (I use py2exe on windows) to make an executable. That? will make life easy. But ..?I think that I need to do something as you said, try to change all C code to python, it may be easier than that I embeded python to C.?Thanks all .?Zhi?

pythonw is just a shell script. You're embedding Python, it's not
even an option. You must use an application bundle in order to
communicate with WindowServer.
You probably shouldn't be embedding Python in the first place.. Much
easier that way, because py2app can create the application bundle for
you, and you don't have to deal with all of the initialization/
finalization for Python.
