When you say "Python opened no windows" you mean that there's also no 
Python console window? (the Python console window is just as bothersome 
to LabVIEW as any other window).

To be completely sure that Python (and the underlying GUSI and SIOUX 
libraries) don't touch any windows you can call 
PyMac_SetConsoleHandler(PyMac_DummyReadHandler, PyMac_DummyWriteHandler, 
PyMac_DummyWriteHandler) before calling PyMac_Initialize(). See 
:Mac:Include:macglue.h for details.
