Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] Mac Python is DEAD

| In my opinion, the problem is the term "MacPython". Python is Python, | period, and we should just call it that, even if it's running on the Mac | platform. Perhaps this was different in the pre-OSX days, but not now. Make that 4 cents on dropping the "Mac". The MacPython name is, to my ears,

[Pythonmac-SIG] Adding Qt designer image files to py2app

2006-01-03 Thread Terry Jones
Apologies for a Qt question - but it is python, mac, py2app related: I have just started using Qt Designer (still under Qt 3.3.4). I've made a simple form, converted it to python via pyuic, and I can subclass it and run it. But when I do, none of the images (visible in Qt Designer) appear. I get m

As a followup to my ongoing attempt to distribute a hello world app, I re-installed MacPython and py2app and sent the result (now sitting in http://jones.tc/simple.tar.bz2) to a friend. He ran the app and got no result (no line printed in the console). The same occurs with a more complex app. Anyw

Hi again. While attempting to solve my Qt problem, I made a dead-simple Hello World python script (two lines, #!... and print) and turned it into an app with py2app. When I run it (open on the command line, double click in the finder, single click on the icon in the dock), I get 'Hello World' pri

I sent mail about a py2app problem I ran into on Sept 28. While I know no-one has a right to expect answers or help, I was a little surprised that there were no suggestions or pointers at all about what might be going wrong. Perhaps this indicates that I (or my python config at least) have some kin
