Just out of curiosity, what script are you running and how is it opening dialog boxes? Is it just a standard Python script? > but when I use the sage installed python > I still get the X11 dialogs.

This suggests that something else in the sage package is > setting the X11 interface to be used rather than the native Mac GUI > dialogs, etc. I have no idea where that might be set, though. What is probably going on is that some special settings/code have to be used to get the native OS X dialogs instead of the (default) X-11 ones, and there's very little platform-specific code in Sage. This is probably something that needs to be set at compile time--probably by changing how Sage's Python is compiled. - Robert -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
