            Indeed you are right.&nbsp; The python and pythonw varieties are
            identical for Python 2.7 and my wxPython application works
            fine with either.<br>

        Which python 2.5.4 is that (that is, how did you install it)?
        Are you sure that 'python' and 'pythonw' refer to the same
        python installation (what is sys.prefix for these two commands)?</div>

    I'm using standard python.org builds.<br>
