Well I saw this clause on most of the multiprocessing examples I saw but the
reason it was here wasn't explained so I just ignored it (yeah stupid I know).
I don't think I bypassed anything,
Yes, you skipped the essential if clause.
The child process is started with a different __name__. So if the
__name__ is not "__main__", then you should NOT call any of the GUI
startup code.
Probably you should do little or nothing in the top-level code of the
child process. But we can't give specific advice without seeing what
that code now looks like. What code do you have at top level, and if it
calls functions, what do they look like?
The way you get that code to be different in the child is with that if
statement that you omitted.
at least not on purpose. I'm running on Windows 7 64 bits.
