More Eric7 Windows weirdness

Hi Jamie,

I saw these entries in your .ini file which you should consider changing.

 1. The Python interpreter for the debugger is set to 'pythonw.exe'.
    This should be changed to 'python.exe' because 'pythonw.exe' is only
    meant for GUI scripts. The debugger backend (aka. debug client) is a
    console script to be used with 'python.exe'.
 2. Is it correct, that you are using the debug client with Python 2?
    Note that Python 2 is obsolete!
 3. The 'Multi Process Debugging' option of the 'Start' dialog should
    only be activated, when a multiprocess program is debugged. However,
    this will not cause the described behavior.

Other than that the file looks good.

Regards,
Detlev
