I'd like to invoke eric3 inside of a python application.  I really
don't want to call eric3's main since it calls sys.exit.  But if I
write my own main, I receive the following message:

/home/jwinston/Tools/i686-unknown-linux/bin/python: can't open file
'/ts1/jwinston/src/TANGO/3/src/Prototypes/sam/demo/test2/Debugger/DebugClient.py'

Is there supported way to invoke eric3 inside of an application?
