[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app/wx font embed problem

2010-11-03 Thread Sean DiZazzo
Hi all,

I'm trying to package an app for both windows and mac.  It uses wxpython,
MySQLdb and SQLObject.  On Windows, I used py2exe, and got it working right
away.  On my mac, I have had problems getting it to work.  I am using
python2.6 on darwin ports along with the needed libraries.

When I run the app from the command line using the darwin ports Python
version, it opens up ok, and there are no font problems.  When I use the
same interpreter and package it into a ".app" application, it opens ok, but
each text character is replaced by a box.  I built the interface with
wxFormBuilder, so I am a bit removed from the actual GUI code.  I did,
though, try changing the default font several different ways and
recompiling.  It didn't help.

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Oct 28 2010, 14:05:04)
wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode
py2app-0.5.3-py2.6.egg

Any ideas?

~Sean

You are likely better off using the python.org build.

Ok.  Thanks.  I'll give it a try (again).  I had some problems getting
MySQLdb installed previously, so I figured I'd give darwin ports a
try...where MySQLdb installed without a hitch.

uggh

[Pythonmac-SIG] Amateur question about modules

2010-11-03 Thread Pedro Gazzola
"ImportError: No module named tkSnack"

I tried to run one script on the Python Launcher and got this import error.

So, how can I correctly import this module?
And where should I put it, so Python can find it.

Thanks for any help.

Yeah, unfortunately my perception is that GUI stuff tends to either
require the python.org build or a careful manual build (making sure you
get all the framework stuff correct).

TkSnack is a Tkinter wrapper for the Snack sound library. You'll need to 
install TkSnack in your site-packages path and Snack in a place where 
Tkinter can find it like /Library/Tcl. Google can direct you to download 
sites.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] MySQLdb on OS X 10.6

2010-11-03 Thread brinsknaps

Thank you so much Ned!!! I completely overlooked that after reinstalling
mysql via macports. I added the db, user, pw, and everything worked
perfectly! There's hope for me and Django after all haha. Again, I really
appreciate your help and time, saving my n00bness to python and Django!

[Pythonmac-SIG] os.getcwd() returns lower case current working directory

2010-11-03 Thread Klaasmer
Hi there,

when I call os.getcwd() on my Mac under OS X 10.6.4 from my home directory, the 
path is converted to lowercase. I get

/users/myusername

instead of

/Users/myusername

On another Mac I get the correct uppercase string. How can I configure this? Is 
there a (hidden) Python setting?

Reason for asking: On OS X all user directories are in "/Users". This is always 
uppercase. When using Mercurial, it gets sometimes confused with this strange 
and incorrect normalization of my current directory.


Best regards,
Klaas.___

[Note to readers here:  the OP asked this question also on Stack 
Overflow and has subsequently found that the same behavior is exhibited 
by an ObjC program.  So it turns out to not be a Python issue at all.]
