Maybe a generic error message when it fails to find Python ?
Seeing as
you posted Python code below I lost my motivation to go
poking round in
C++ files.

This is great, it runs fine with Movable Python. (Although I
have yet to
find a machine *without* Python installed to try it
properly, I need to
get VMWare running again.)
When it runs for the first time it prints the following
message to the
console (but works fine) :
Failed to connect to Pythonwin|System. Error 0
Is this because there is no currently running version of
pythonwin for
it to connect to ?
Anyway, many thanks.
