Re: [pygame] Re: pygame and run once




Well, you could simply try to open a file when starting the program, and if it is already open, quit, and if not, start up as per usual.

If you want to start switchign window focus then that is more suited to platform specific programming (or, if you are so inclined, a GUI library).

It seems there is a "pygame way" to allow a pygame script to be runned once.
i believe that i'd seen that one day. but i'm not able to find it again...

i'm on a linux box ...

i would like to have :
- when i first launch my script : it start
- when i launch the script again, it give back the focus to the last
instance, and close it

i'm pretty sure that i've read it somewhere ...
