Well shipping wxWidgets isn't a big deal. If you are already requiring python be installed, then a wxWidgets dll is trivial. Even better, if you are using py2exe, then the wxWidgets dll and module will all be wrapped cleanly in the exe, so I think it's a clear winner. Users needn't know anything about wxWidgets or have to install it. Bundling wxWidgets in your python app adds a couple of megabytes to the size. Certainly you're not going to want to do native win32 GUI development, even in python. wxWidgets is an order of magnitude better for doing this, methinks. > > Thank you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
