Tkinter file dialog screwed
The tkinter file dialog is, for me, unusable. Whenever I try to use it, it opens, but all the text is white on a white background (see this http://xomf.com/qzhgy) making it unusable. This has happened on 2 linux systems, both KDE plasma 5. Any help? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Playing an audio file, but not waiting for it to finish?
Hi, I have a library that allows me to play sound files. However, the play function waits for the sound to finish before it returns, and I'd like to be able to start the sound playing, and then have it return immediately so my program can continue, but also be able to know when the sound finishes. Is this possible, without modifying the library? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Serialising an 8x8x8 array of pygame sounds
Is it possible to serialise an 8x8x8 array of pygame.mixer.Sound objects, so they stay at the same places in the array, but in a format that can be pickled, and then the opposite (read from that back to pygame.mixer.Sound objects)? Thanks (copied from stackoverflow question @ https://is.gd/JDtURe) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

That's my problem, the Sound object can't be picked, I was wondering if a way existed to convert said object to a serialize-able format. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Using copyreg to pickle unpicklable oblects
Hi, I have an object (pygame.mixer.Sound) and, to convert it to a picklable format, I can run: sound_object.get_raw() and to turn that back into an object, I can run: sound_object = pygame.mixer.Sound(raw_data) Is it possible to use copyreg or something similar so it's done automatically when I pickle pygame.mixer.Sound() objects? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I get:
_pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle : attribute lookup Sound on

Re: TCL/TK as default UI toolkit, and wayland
Python's "standard" (and bundled on most platforms) UI tookkit is TCL/TK. However, this has A LOT of drawbacks: * It's eyesore on a lot of platforms * It's non-pythonic * It just flat out fails on some desktop environments * On linux it requires X, however lots of distros are now using wayland and so on. I think python needs a new "standard" UI toolkit. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
