Hello,
I am attempting to use tkFileDialog.askopenfile():
1) On my Mac OSX Mavericks w/ Python 2.7.8, Anaconda 2.0.1 (x86_64) the
following code (found via web searches) crashes:
from Tkinter import *
import tkFileDialog
root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
file = tkFileDialog.askopenfile(parent=root)
- A file dialog opens, I can select a file and click the Open button or
doubleclick the filename. The window freezes, the spinning rainbow ball
comes up, and a Kernel restart is needed to close the window.
This happens on iPython notebook as well as within the Spyder IDE.
2) I run the same distribution on a Linux VM on the same machine.
There, it works fine. The variable 'file' contains the name of
whichever file I've selected.
As far as I know, my Mac Python distribution is up-to-date.
Pointers to documentation or fixes appreciated.
JBB
