Hi Tony,
Thanks for the wxPython code. My reason for wanting to avoid
wxPython (and pyQt) is that I don't want to ship the wxPython

Your indentation is a bit hard to read in this format, but it looks like the

When the "with open" block exits, the file is no longer open. Thus writing
to a closed file will fail.
