[SciPy-user] gui_thread trouble

[Brice Thurin]

Hello,

I have just finished installing scipy and I am trying to run the demo,  
unfortunately it doesn't work.
I have got macpython2.4 installed on panther. I have been trying with  
several version of Numeric and apparentely wxPython is working  
properly, I executed the demo samples without trouble. I have been  
trying to launch the following command
 >>> import gui_thread
 >>> gui_thread.start()
with IDLE, python IDE, PYcrust and the terminal and I always get the  
same problem:

error message with pycrust:

import gui_thread
numerix Numeric 24.0b2
gui_thread.start()
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<input>", line 1, in ?
