Everything is running as expected. What I am trying to do is first
create a draft that the Dabo users can correct before I add it to the
Dabo Wiki on "How To use Class Designer" series. I want to cover the
basic first then in the series add more subjects on "How To CD", like on
adding menu, Status Bar Fields, Database and so on in the Class
Designer. By doing this I hope to understand Dabo using the CD and hand
coding special needs with in the CD. I am also explaining in the "How To
CD" where added information in the Dabo Documentation and the Wiki for
more detail info and examples. In turn I hope this will help new user
and myself in getting more out of Dabo. I must split my time because I
have my project that I need to complete using Dabo.
The problem I had was with my "How To use Class Designer" on making
changes to the main.py so that the user can click on main to run the
application. What happened was when I clicked on main.py the terminal
window appeared and the closed. I sent to ED this part of the Emai.

Today I ran on my Ubuntu 8.04:
cd $HOME/src/dabo; svn up
Which has solved the problem.
The new version is:
Platform: GTK
Python Version: 2.5.2 on linux2
Dabo Version: Version 0.9.1; Revision 5009M
UI Version: 2.8.8.0 on wxGTK (gtk2)
Past News
The output was:
HomeDirectory =
/home/bobsysero/temp/HelloWorld/home/bobsysero/temp/HelloWorld
The Home directory should be: /home/bobsysero/temp/HelloWorld
Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 8.10
Gnome
Platform: GTK
Python Version: 2.5.2 on linux2
Dabo Version: Version 0.9.0; Revision 4915M
UI Version: 2.8.8.0 on wxGTK (gtk2)
I decided to rerun cd $HOME/src/dabo; svn up
and the new version is:
Dabo Version: Version 0.9.1; Revision 5009M
This corrected the problem and I will get back to the How To CD and my
project.
Thank You
Bob
