According to this page:

http://docs.python.org/using/mac.html#running-scripts-with-a-gui

"With older versions of Python, there is one Mac OS X quirk that you need to be aware of: programs that talk to the Aqua window manager (in other words, anything that has a GUI) need to be run in a special way. Use pythonw instead of python to start such scripts.

"With Python 2.5, you can use either python or pythonw."
