Would it be feasible for it to always start up as a gui app, and then create its own console window (a fake one if necessary) if it decides it needs one? Doing things this way might make it possible to be a bit smarter and not have the console window go away the moment the script ends. That tends to make console-mode scripts rather useless... Also, it would be very handy if in all cases it would display a traceback somehow in the event of an uncaught exception. It's frustrating when a gui app fails to start up and just vanishes into a black hole leaving no clue what went wrong. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
