Not my spelling, although I do have to be careful when typing that word.
From before:

(https://github.com/SGanesh19/LaTeX-to-Speech) to run as an accessibility aid,
converting equations into speech. I haven’t used cx_Freeze before so stumbling

I did count but hadn’t noticed this argument list before you mentioned it.
However, I still don’t see any of these argument names in the Executable list
or anywhere else.

I tried passing just main.py or one of the others that might be a starting
point but just got ’NoneType has no len()
I was hoping to use someone else’s code to turn Latex equations into Speech.
Maybe easier to just narrated each equation to create an audio file.
Thanks for your suggestions Dennis. This was the first time I saw the
possibility of creating a python executable.
Then I searched for ‘python executable’ and found auto-py-to-exe and
pyinstaller which I must/might explore later. First tries ran into PyQt4 to
PyQt5 conversions. Good start at
https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-easily-convert-a-python-script-to-an-executable-file-exe-4966e253c7e9
I might wait for the original author to respond to an issue I posted on GitHub.
Thanks again. David

Re: Problem using cx_Freeze
Hi Dennis
Thank you for your reply. I’m am trying to get LaTex-to-Speech
(https://github.com/SGanesh19/LaTeX-to-Speech) to run as an accessibility aid,
converting equations into speech. I haven’t used cx_Freeze before so stumbling
somewhat.
The error returned is
File
"/Users/duser/Documents/Win_ShareFolder/LaTeX-to-Speech-master/setup.py", line
9, in
Executable(
TypeError: __init__() takes from 2 to 12 positional arguments but 14 were given
The setup.py file is currently
import cx_Freeze
# from cx_Freeze import *
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
setup(
name="Latex2Speech",
options = {'build_exe':{'packages':['gtts','pyglet','PyQt4']}},
executables=[
Executable(
"prjui.py","Maiui.py","about.py","dict.py","geometry.py","getEquation.py",
"gtrail.py","main.py","matchingstring.py","producelatex.py","readfile.py",
"separete.py","speak.py",
)
]
)
I am/was worried about the trailing ‘,' after ',"speak.py”,’ <- but deleting it
or moving it after the ] didn’t help. Adding base = None also didn’t help.
Searching for ‘__init__(' in the 13 *.py files returned five lines in two files
(algorithm.py and prjui.py). As mentioned searching for this error only
produced mention of adding self which is in these lines already. Previously I
had search for __init__() which returned no lines due to the closing ).
I had visited the page you provided
(https://cx-freeze.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup_script.html#cx-freeze-executable)
but didn’t noticed the 11 plus self as 12 arguments.
Thanks again for any suggestions.
David

Re: Problem using cx_Freeze
Hi Jim Thanks for your suggestions. I changed from cx_Freeze import * to from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable And no longer get the BdistDMG error — I had found the page https://cx-freeze.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup_script.html But hadn’t tried the setup, Executable option in the from statement — However I now get an error init() takes from 2 to 12 positional arguments but 14 were given I found a couple instances of init in two .py files that were part of the whole. One .py file def __init__(self): Another .py file class Aboutwindow(QtGui.QMainWindow, Ui_Aboutwindow): def __init__(self,parent=None): QtGui.QMainWindow.__init__(self,parent) — class Main(QtGui.QMainWindow): def __init__(self): QtGui.QMainWindow.__init__(self) When searching for this error the answers found suggested including self in the init parameter list but the code already has self.

Problem using cx_Freeze
I’m trying to use cx_Freeze (https://pypi.org/project/cx-Freeze/) in a python app but running into an error message: AttributeError: module 'cx_Freeze' has no attribute ‘BdistDMG’ I’m using Anaconda and error appears with the import command: from cx_Freeze import * From the terminal the command: python setup.py build gives much the same error. I believe there is an issue specifying the output file name but don’t know how to resolve it. Any suggestions, thanks. David -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
