Ok ... so thanks to everyone for the help ...

if parent is None:
its getting called at the bottom of the script below the class ...
if __name__ == "__main__":
try:
test_ui.deleteLater()

Hey guys,
I am fairly new to regular expressions.
When I want to get the delimiter between a filename and framenumber I am
using the following regex.
f = myawesome_filename_v1_0001.exr
pat = re.compile*('[\.|\_]\d+[\.]\w{3}')*
x = re.search(pat, f)
Does anyone know if there is a way to display text within the PySide
progressbar ? Right now its displaying a percentage for me. I'd love to
show what it is actually doing as well.

Also with Popen, you should be able to just pass all args broken up into a

I have a couple general housekeeping questions for you guys ...
1. Where do you store your persistent application settings ?
2. How/Where do you check to see if a dialog you have wrapped in the Maya
application exists so it does not create multiple instances ?

The the less straight forward parts are as follows :

In the case of numpy however I’m not sure one exists.

I agree with Marcus. Most of the newer pipeline tools I am coding are
