I recommend Notepad++ for Windows-Users (seriously - you don't have that? ). With Linux any text-editor will do (lol at using nano Go VI already )
However - I'll push a merge-request out tonight for rembo10, but I don't think a update will happen soon...
Maybe I should get into python already and fork over the project
This seems to be working fine for me now too! Woot. Of course the system wants me to update constantly now. Oh well. Will just have to keep an eye on things.
By the way, for the Windows installation recs, you might want to add something like they do for the Maraschino install to prevent the little command prompt window:

Advanced Auto-Start
A tip was brought to my attention by XBMC Forum Member _Mikie_ that allows you to hide the Console (Command Prompt) Window while still allowing Maraschino to run. This can be useful for people that still use the system running Maraschino for other tasks and don't want it to display on screen or in the taskbar. I took his original idea and modified it below to make it "Update Proof" and save users from having to make this change each time the main file is updated.
Instead of using the above code for your "maraschino.bat" file, substitute it with the following:
cd "C:\HTPC-Apps\Maraschino"
del "maraschino-cherrypy.pyw"
copy "maraschino-cherrypy.py" "maraschino-cherrypy.pyw"
start "Maraschino" maraschino-cherrypy.pyw
exit
When you use this method, a Command Prompt will quickly flash on your screen during boot but will instantly disappear and you wont have to worry about seeing it and closing it by accident.
