Pyscripter does not

[JJ CC]

Hi,

The PyScripter Interpreter seems to report back upon launch a script like below ***** when there is a syntax error.  It does not report what the error is and the line the error is on, but reports back with errors in the python library files!  I noticed the same issue in the previous version 4.2.5. My interpreter is configured to External, not remote, so I don't know why it reports back "remote"!

In Spyder, it reports back with something like this: AttributeError: 'QPushButton' object has no attribute 'setSdtyleSheet', etc, and includes the name and line number (not shown here)of my script file. 

What is going on here please because I can't use PyScripter properly at all!

Thanks.

Julian

 > My interpreter is configured to External, not remote,

What do you mean by that?   Run, External Run is a way of running scripts outside Pyscripter.  But otherwise under Run, Python Engine, there is no option "External".  So when you run the script by (Run, Run/Debug, or using the toolbar buttons) it appears that you are using the Remote Python Engine.  See the help topic "Remote Python Engines" for details. 

> when there is a syntax error

The error you are encountering is most likely a Run time error (AttributeError is a runtime error), which kills the running python engine.

Could you please post a minimal script that reproduces the issue you are having?
