​Thanks for that Florian.  That is why​ I wrote "Python 3" at the top.

At PyQt-for-Python-3, the old exec_() calls were replaced, or at least
complemented by, the newly-acceptable, plain exec() call all over the place.
My point is, there is an inconsistency here in the exec_()/exec() situation.

As for where I got the code from: same as always, from PyCharm I "go to
definition" and it shows me the Qt.pyi file with the definitions of what
I'm trying to call.  Which is where I notices what was going on here.  I'm
on Qt/PyQt 5.7, btw.
