The -psn argument is a bit of an historical leftover. It stands for carbon process serial number. Every time you start an application from within the finder/desktop by double clicking it, this option will be attached automatically as the first command line option (sys.argv[1]) after the script name. Set argv_emulation=True (in your setup.py in OPTIONS) or delete it within your application (__main__): if len(sys.argv) > 1: del sys.argv[1] Here is a little sample setup: setup.py file: from setuptools import setup OPTIONS = {'argv_emulation': False} setup( app=['foo.py'], description="A foo.", options={'py2app': OPTIONS}, setup_requires=['py2app'], ) foo.py file in same directory: import sys if "__main__" == __name__: if len(sys.argv) > 1: del sys.argv[1] print sys.argv Greetings, Tobias _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
