[GRASS-user] Running Python scripts inside GRASS

[Sonja Jankowfsky]

I uninstalled Python25 and 24 on my machine and reinstalled Python26 + 
the packages wxPython,

PyWin32, and NumPy. 

the ftype python.file in the command line changed to Python26 now. 
However, when I try to run the python script in GRASS I still get the following error:

 File "E:\pythoninput\test_simple.py", line 2, in <module>
     import grass.script as grass
   File "C:\GRASS-4-SVN\etc\python\grass\script\__init__.py", line 1, in 
 <module>
 
     from core   import *
  File "C:\GRASS-4-SVN\etc\python\grass\script\core.py", line 30, in 
 <module>
     import subprocess
   File "C:\GRASS-4-SVN\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 376, in <module>
     import threading
   File "C:\GRASS-4-SVN\Python25\lib\threading.py", line 13, in <module>
     from collections import deque
 ImportError: No module named collections

I replaced again the content of the dlls, include, Lib, libs and Scripts folder in GRASS-64-SVN/Python25 with those of my Python26 installation. 

This results again in the fact, that I can now run my Python programm in 
the GRASS command line, but I lost my wxPython interface.
I get the following error message in Msys:

C:\GRASS-4-SVN\Python25\lib\site.py:150: Warning: 'with' will become a 
reserved keyword in Python 2.6
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:/GRASS-4-SVN/etc/wxpython/gis_set.py", line 23, in <module>
    import os
  File "C:\GRASS-4-SVN\Python25\lib\os.py", line 758
    bs = b""
           ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Error in GUI startup. If necessary, please
report this error to the GRASS developers.
Switching to text mode now.

So, the uninstalling of Python25 didn't help anything.
Does anybody has another idea?
