Python 2.0 script won't run under MATE 20.04

I just fixed a bug in the script when launching and loading an existing settings file. This may be the current issue. Please try the updated version on github.

Also, do you have a screenshot of the command that is run from your launcher?

I've downloaded the updated version. What I've discovered is that if I delete the setting file ~./pydosbox, the GUI will load. However, it will not let me browse for the program I want to run. A new settings file will be created, and after that the GUI will not load until deleting the setting file again.
The issue does not seem to be with my launcher, but with a conflict with the settings file.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Great observation. This script takes the interesting approach of writing valid python into the settings file that is then run upon opening the program. Would you be willing to share the contents of your ~/.pydosbox file?

Sure! Here it is

self.dosboxpath = "/usr/bin/dosbox"
self.profiles = [
("Default", "", False, False), 
("Concord", "/home/jim/DOS/CONCORD/SP.EXE", False, True), 
("MYM12", "/home/jim/DOS/MYM12/MYM.EXE", False, True)]
