As the bug says, it's likely related to GUI use (there should be a more detailed message from Ronald in this list's archives or the pyobjc list), so I would bet that you haven't removed all Quartz usage or that you're somehow activating some other GUI mechanism. You might also look at what the multiprocessing module does, we use that extensively with our GUI app and it works fine. -- Aahz (a...@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." --Red Adair _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
