How to open Python?

[bensan]

I have modified the code you posted to make it work but note I don't personally think it's very code due to the * import and the use of global.
To prevent the console window from opening save the .py file with a .pyw extension and run that version instead.

from tkinter import *
from tkinter.filedialog import asksaveasfilename

root = Tk("Text Editor")

text = Text(root)

text.grid()


def saveas():
    global text
    t = text.get("1.0", "end-1c")
    savelocation = asksaveasfilename()
    print(savelocation)
    file1 = open(savelocation, "w+")
    file1.write(t)
    file1.close()


button = Button(root, text="Save", command=saveas)
button.grid()


def font_helvetica():
    global text
    text.config(font="Helvetica")


def font_courier():
    global text
    text.config(font="Courier")


font = Menubutton(root, text="Font")
font.grid()

font.menu = Menu(font, tearoff=0)
font["menu"] = font.menu

helvetica = IntVar()
arial = IntVar()
times = IntVar()
courier = IntVar()

font.menu.add_checkbutton(label="Courier", variable=courier,
                          command=font_courier)
font.menu.add_checkbutton(label="Helvetica", variable=helvetica,
                          command=font_helvetica)

root.mainloop()

Thanks @Yoriz. OK, now I have both the console window & the program window appearing. It makes no difference if the file has a .py or .pyw extension.

Thank you, I wish you had entered this discussion at the beginning, it would have saved some hot heads. At least now I have something to work with & I have other more complicated scripts so I will try everything & will be taking your advice.
