Something that we would need to be careful about with the above proposal is that no other python script using Tk is running when you startup PRPCd in it's ''run as needed' mode.

I think I prefer running PRPCd all the time (like we've been doing).
It provides system crash protection for running multiple Tk python scripts, IF it is started before any other scripts.

But mainly I want to run it all the time because;
I use alot of client modules (posefilter and conformto in particular), so I like having PRPCd running all the time with my client modules configured.

Now in Poser 7, to run python scripts, I'm keeping an 'windows explorer' session on my task bar which points to my pythonscripts folder. This way I can easily launch them remotely whenever I need one. I'm leaving 'with confirmation' enabled so I get a chance to confirm execution of the script.

I'm thinking that I might try and figure out a way to duplicate Pose 7's python script menus in some other alternative system. Maybe some win32ui calls to search the menu handles?

Any return thoughts on this?
