Nice one. Full paths are required for platforms that don't have relative paths (like windowsCE).
I updated all the examples to have a main(), and use pygame.quit. Still need to update the cmd line argument ones to use main() arguments. I think also the pygame.tests.run() could be passed arguments that can be passed by command line arguments too. That'll require a bit of a refactor of though. For example, pygame.tests.run(randomize=True, multi_thread=8, exclude="interactive") cheers, On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 4:09 PM, Lenard Lindstrom <le...@telus.net> wrote: > I was thinking of something like that myself.
