You could try something like this using pygsear (http://www.nongnu.org/pygsear/) The button can call either start() which just makes a new Game instance in the same process, or full_restart() which starts a new process and quits the current one. from pygsear import Game, Widget from pygsear.locals import RED class G(Game.Game): def initialize(self): print 'starting up...' self.button = Widget.SpriteTextButton(self.window, "Restart", size=40, color=RED, padding=20) self.events.add(self.button.events) self.button.set_callback(self.restart) self.button.set_position((200, 100)) self.sprites.add(self.button) def restart(self, ev): print 'restarting...' #start() full_restart() self.quit = True def start(): g = G() g.mainloop() def full_restart(): import os import sys cmd = 'python %s &' % sys.argv[0] os.system(cmd) if __name__ == '__main__': start() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
