Great! Thanks Frederik!

I know about the issue, i did some tests, but I thought it was FontLab 5.1 realted. And no, I'm not using Lion. Should dialogs work in Snow Leopard? As the traceback says it's seems the embeded python 2.7 can't import EasyDialogs... I can build them with vanilla, I know, but it's not urgent enough. I'll wait for a while if there's no other way.

its idd not working in the current build this will be working in the next update, this is scheduled soon :)

Thank you Frederik! Will look forward to that. I've been looking at some of Tal's examples such as this one (referred by Andy Clymer) http://code.typesupply.com/browser/packages/dialogKit/trunk/examples/EditTextDemo.py which I'm trying to work out as a replacement for AskString
