Did you ever tried writing a Win32 GUI app in C ?-) But you should re-read the above more carefully. What I do understand from it is that PyWin32 adds support for the MFC toolkit (nb: didn't check myself since I'm not concerned...). > It's just C that looks like Python? > > Guess I have the answer as to no one seems to write GUI apps for > Windows natively :-) Fact is that either the app is a small, casual tool, and then Tkinter is quite enough, or it's a real, fullblown app and then better to use a decent (and, if possible, crossplatform) toolkit - like, you know, wxWidgets !-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
