Thanks for sending the above dav, I think I'm more interested in trying to get a very basic GUI up and running, which from the look of it your script doesn't handle.. I tried another tactic. I went through all the example folders that the xcode 3.1 installation put on my hard drive (/Developer/Documentation/Python/PyObjC/tutorial/ specifically) and found again the official pyobjc tutorial. My new tactic is to start with the final piece of code there (step 12), build and run it and then play with it until I know how it works. The problem is, when I build it and run it (out of the box!), it doesn't work (cue hair-pulling sounds). I open a terminal, tell it to build (python setup.py py2app), then tell it to run (open dist/CurrencyConverter.app), and it gives me a dialog box with an error inside: CurrencyConverter Error An unexpected error has occured during excution of the main script ImportError: No module named Foundation Open Console or Terminate So - I'm beginning to think either these are the useless errors that dav talked about and that I need to somehow shoe-horn the useful exception code into the py2app build instructions, or that it really can't find the Foundation module. I would have thought py2app could find and insert the bits and pieces it needs just from the import statements, or do I have to declare that I want to use Foundation in the setup.py somehow? A third possibility is that I've somehow broken my setup - how else could a tutorial that came with the latest xcode not work out of the box? I'd be very grateful if someone can point me in the direction of at least a very small working pyobjc GUI app that works out of the box with modern software ....
