python and mac issues Options

[chand]

Hi,
I'm trying to run a python program on Mac.It was originally written on Windows environment. Everytime I try to run it from Mac, I get the following error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/Chandrima/MSD4.py", line 149, in <module>
ifile = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(title="Select File with X Y Gauss Fit",filetypes=[('Text file','*FULL.txt'),('Text file','*.txt'),('All','*')],initialdir="C:")
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/tkFileDialog.py", line 125, in askopenfilename
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/tkCommonDialog.py", line 48, in show
TclError: bad directory "C:"

Any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated.

The error message says it all:
TclError: bad directory "C:"

Your call to tkFileDialog.askopenfilename has the initialdir set to "C:", which is not valid on a Mac. I'm actually not 100% certain on the Mac equivelant, but im pretty sure you want to use just "/".
