When trying to run smart --gui I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: unsubscriptable object

The only choice is to close the error window which shuts down smart.

Me too. Works in 10.0.

Add the next two lines at this point in the file.

Thanks Ken. I saw that too. Now to expose some ignorance on my part... What the heck do I do with this? I thought I'd use Kate to edit the file but I guess I should use another process since it works for you (whatever you did) and my method failed.

TIA for sharing the knowledge! Stan
