I've tried both from the command line and double clicking the file
|
|
name (I have the proper associations set up). I've tried running
|
|
k:\python\python tktest.py, I've tried starting python and typing the
|
|
file in one line at a time, I've even tried waving a dead chicken over
|
|
my computer. No luck.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
Actaully it doesn't return at all.....ever.
|
|
If I close the root window, I get a messsage from windows that says :
|
|
"Windows can't shut this program down automatically. It is recommended
|
|
that you close the program....bla bla bla".
|
|

|
|
|
|
I've looked, there's no icon on the task bar. I've check through the
|
|
task manager and there's nothing there either.

I went to this site and typed in the example file (it was basically
|
|
the same one that I was trying to run). I still get nothing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any other suggestions?

Thank you for trying to help ,
