[TxMt] Running GUI Python Apps

[Donald Curtis]

Hey guys,

I am trying to make use of the GetBundles package and I know that this is not the forum for questions/problems with that bundle but I think this may have something to do more with Textmate so bare with me.

GetBundles likes to keep the "Support" folder up-to-date.  It checks out a version from "http://svn.textmate.org" namely the trunk version of Support.  OK that's no problem on its own.  But then once this gets pulled, I have a problem running Python scripts that run graphical interfaces.  Namely I have a Tkinter app that works from the command line but when it runs the python icon just bounces on the dock and it just sits there.

I had this similar problem with LaTeX at one point but I updated to the newest version of the LaTeX bundle and it began to work again.  I tried to update the Python bundle to the latest from git (textmate version _not_ the adamv fork) and that didn't fix the problem.

I figure its simply a matter that trunk is trunk and it's not necessarily supposed to work.  I have resorted to using GetBundles and just deleting that updated Support directory.  This seems to fix the problem.
