which OS and Gooey Version?

Disregard above. After actually looking at your stack trace I realized thar be OSX paths.

Looks like this is a cross-platform quirk in Gooey itself. Adding shell=True in gooey/gui/seeders.py Popen call fixes this issue. I don't quite know why it fails on OSX but works on everything else. Could you open this issue under the main Gooey project?

i'm going to close the one here as it's not an issue with the demo code.
