pythonw is and always has been a stub that launches a regular python interpreter. There is nothing special about it except for the path the regular interpreter is located at.

You are correct about the message's meaning, but without source the cause can't be determined. -bob On Jun 28, 2006, at 11:44 AM, Jordan Breeding wrote: > Hello, > > Do you think that the Python 2.4.3 Universal build could be having > this effect with python and pythonw now combined?
