Whenever I try to use Piddle plotting in the Python Interpreter I get
the following message:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "QDCanvas instance has no

"Drive" is my HD name and Python is kept in the "Applications" folder.
This problem happens even with the original piddletest.py module which
works ok until attempting to open a plot window -- meaning I don't get
far. Then I get the above msg.
I am running Python 2.2 on a Macintosh G4, system 9.1. Same problem on
my G3 and PB.
Anyone have success in getting Piddle to work with the Interpreter on a
Mac? Any help appreciated.
