Problem with pyobfuscate

[JOM]

I took a very simple code I've written and tried to pyobfuscate it. Got this error note, just below the URL. Any ideas what it means? How to fix something?

The "KeyError: draw_count" mentioned on last row refers to a function in the script.

Just some additional info: managed to pyobfuscate "rolabol.py", installed on hardware and run. It works partially, but not fully: got error about "UnboundLocalError: local variable ... referenced before assignment".

I guess if I want to use pyobfuscate, then I need to code in certain specific way. Does anyone know any such tips? Using version 0.3.

Wondering,

Using pyobfuscate I encountered two pitfalls:
- each 'import' statement had do be on it's own line (not comma seperated)
- special charcters in unicode strings (e.g. Umlauts ä,ö,ü,...) had to be encoded (e.g. ö -> \u00f6)

Thanx for tips, but I'm clean with both already. Have to be something else.. Also noticed that pyobfuscate didn't remove all comment lines, so there's something definitely wrong.

Just realized that it's a non-pys60 python app! I could use some real Python IDE with a real Debugger
