Differents behaviours of my application

[Aleix Palet]

Ok, now with Gary's code when i do resume i get the desired behaviour in the
__init__ funcion, but i don't get the code of my read_file emthod to be
called. Do I have to do something special?? thanks!
Another thing, how can i put the toolbox in a pygame window?? because i
don't get to see the toolbox whereever i put the initiating code! thanks
again!!
