I have no qualms about sending you the code. The code by itself would
not be executable though unless I provide several files. The critical
ones are a jpg, which is used to fill the initial display area, and two
others that have to do with color and making a movie. A minimum of two
data files may be needed, but I suspect they could be skipped. If they
are necessary, then it's a simple matter of creating an Events folder
and putting them there. The py and extra files need to in the same
folder. It runs in Py 2.5. I guess the data files would be useful in
the case where one might test the exit when data is viewed. I think I
found the same results. <br>

looking
a
1800+ line someone else wrote. It uses one large dialog for
menus, and has a large area for images. A few menus open small dialogs,
for example, to enter a file name. The File menu has an exit choice.
The only other exit is the x in the upper right corner of the large
dialog. I'm pretty sure that menu is coded to quit via a short def in
the program.<br>
<br>
def Quit(self)<br>
self.running = False<br>
self.master.quit()<br>
<br>
I see no other code to quit. If I use Exit(menu item), the program does
not quit. If I then use the x, it quits and the shell script is left
open for a command. Any ideas why Quit doesn't work in the first case?
It's accessible via a<br>
self.mainMenu.add_command(.. command=self.Quit)<br>
I had not turned the program loose by using a menu or touching any
controls.<br>
<br>
If I cause the program to print to the shell, and then use x to exit
that it hangs the shell. Why? When I x the shell, it tells me the prog
is running." Do I want to kill it?" Yes, kills the shell window.<br>
<br>
The above seems abnormal to me. Comments?<br>
