Ok, just to check. Should widgets be able to work in 32 bit and I'm
doing something wrong? I'm modifying a friend's program to do my
bidding and it was made to open a gui to select a single image or a
directory of images to process. The biggest problem is the file
selected isn't remembered after being selected unless I manually type
it into the gui. If not, I'll just have to modify it to read in the
images without the widgets.
