Application Error with wxPython

[Levente Sandor]

Try this:

from wxPython.wx import *

app = wxPySimpleApp() # We MUST create a wxApp instance before using any
                      # windows, even if we don't use it...

chooser = wxFileDialog(None)
if chooser.ShowModal() == wxID_OK:
	choice = chooser.GetPath()
	print choice
else:
	print "Cancelled"
