    <p>By double-clicking a <code>.py</code> file on OS X, you are likely launching a Python gui instance via the <code>Python Launcher.app</code> supplied with OS X Pythons. You can verify that by selecting the <code>.py</code> file in the Finder and doing a <code>Get Info</code> on it. Python Launcher is a very simple-minded app that starts Python via a Terminal.app command. To directly launch your own Python GUI app, the preferred approach is to create a simple app using <a href="http://pypi.python.org/pypi/py2app/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">py2app</a>. There's a brief tutorial <a href="http://svn.pythonmac.org/py2app/py2app/trunk/doc/index.html#tutorial" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>.</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>There are other ways, of course, but most likely any of them would be adding more levels of indirection. To make a normal launchable, "double-clickable" application, you need some sort of app structure. That's what <code>py2app</code> lets you create directly.</p> <p>A very simple-minded alternative is to take advantage of the AppleScript Editor's ability to create a launcher app. In the <code>AppleScript</code> editor:</p> <ul> <li><p><code>/Applications/Utilities/AppleScript Editor.app</code> in OS X 10.6</p></li> <li><p><code>/Applications/AppleScript/Script Editor.app</code> in 10.5</p></li> </ul> <p>make a new script similar to this:</p> <pre><code>do shell script "/path/to/python /path/to/script.py &amp;&gt; /dev/null &amp;" </code></pre> <p>and then <code>Save As..</code> with <code>File Format -&gt; Application</code>. Then you'll have a double-clickable app that will launch another app. You can create something similar with Apple's <code>Automater.app</code>. But, under the covers, they are doing something similar to what <code>py2app</code> does for you, just with more layers on top.</p>

    1. COThanks for the link. So is it safe to say that there is no way of simply suppressing the Terminal from launching without using py2app?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
