I sent an email directly to the creator of this software, and then thought 
maybe I should post here instead.  So...

Hello Chris!

Right to the issue: The program has just started giving the following error 
message (each time it starts):

Error starting interface. Keyboard monitoring will be disabled.  Check your 
system/configuration.
Details
get_window_title() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)

What does it mean and how do I fix it?

What I was doing before this started occurring, you ask...
I created some scripts, for example:

    keyboard.send_keys("pinkie<enter>")

I tested them and they worked fine. 
That being true, I already had the Advanced Settings/Interface set to: AT-SPI 
-- I did this because I wanted to see if it would stop the program from needing 
to be constantly restarted; I also, earlier, tried the X EvDev setting for the 
same reason.  Neither of these settings changed the restart issue.  BTW, about 
the "restart" issue: I restart the program because the abbreviation stops 
working and restarting it seems to be the only cure.

Anyway, after I created the scripts and after I restarted the program (because, 
again, the abbreviations stopped working), I got the aforementioned popup 
message.  So, I thought I'd change the Interface settings back to X Record, but 
now, it won't accept the change.  In other words, I select that setting, click 
on OK, but the window just sits there staring back at me!

So, if the error message has to do with the Interface settings, how do I change 
them.
If the error message has to do with the scripts I created, I deleted them; even 
so, I still get the error message.

Oh, I've uninstalled/re-installed and rebooted about 5x now.

So now I give up!  Help please!!

OH, at this point Autokey is not working: the abbreviations don't work, and 
nothing from the tray menu works--except: Show Main Window, and Quit.
