That explains it!
I knew I'd done this before, I was just looking at the wrong function name. thx

No, that wasn't the case. The argument of inspect.getargvalues() is a
'frame object' not 'function object'.

e.g.:
>>> inspect.getargvalues(inspect.currentframe())

You could argue that the error message is misleading (should be
TypeError instead), do you want a bug report on that?

hello,

is there a way, in python, to create a splash window and when the
program has completed disappears by sending a msg to it? (I tried
creating two gtk windows but gtk_main doesn't seem to return unless it
gets closed.)
