But alas it does not. I assume this is an "applet" that processes files you drop on it (since anything else typically needs a GUI to be useful as a double-clickable application instead of a command-line tool). So far the best I have come up with is RO.Wdg.DropletRunner, which is part of my RO package available at PyPI. Features: - It color codes the messages by source (stdout=black, stderr=red) - Once the script has processed your initial batch of files you can drag new files onto it to process those However, it has a few rough edges: - It requires a trivial script to run your script - It wants a simple property list in your setup.py to specify what kind of files can be dropped on the applet - It buffers the output more than I would like Regards, -- Russell _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
