Yes, I think I see most of it; I am not experienced enough in wx to get it all, but I think I have the most important parts. I have my wx frame created, and am opening dialogs using lbc on top of my frame. I am suddenly getting strange problems with my frame not closing with alt-f4, sometimes, and needing to hit ctrl-c in the shell from where I opened my program to kill the process completely, even when alt-f4 does work. I am telling my dialog "parent=board.parentFrame", where board.parentFrame is the frame I am using, but nothing improves. Are the two instances of wx.App not getting along? If so, what should I do to get lbc dialogs to play nice with my own wx frame, which is already there and set up with controls and an accelerator table?
