[Pythonmac-SIG] wxPython -- some disappointment using it.

thank you Charles, thank you Saggau (and thank you Daniel for posing
the question).   I'm also new to wxPython, though I've been working
with Wax (a more pythonic layer on top of wxPython) for some months
now), and I also was having a devil of a time trying to debug a
simple app - the error window would pop up for a fraction of a second
and then disappear. 

I tried your suggestion and indeed, I can read the exception message
at my leisure!

thanks again
