I'm trying to generate the script file that will launch a PythonCard resource file.
very basic example from the documentation.
#!/usr/bin/python
"""
__version__ = "$Revision: 1.10 $"
__date__ = "$Date: 2004/04/24 22:13:31 $"
"""
from PythonCard import model
class Minimal(model.Background):
pass
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = model.Application(Minimal)
app.MainLoop()
