That shouldn't make much difference unless PyCharm sets its default folders differently? BTW running GUI programs from inside an IDE is always slightly dodgy, the IDE tends to trap all kinds of things that might happen when you run the program outside the IDE. Its always worth testing GUI programs by launching them from the OS - eg by double clicking the file in Finder on OSX. The IDE is fine while coding and debugging but it should be thought of as a draft only, the final code needs to be run outside the IDE before you can be sure it works. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
