I wouldn't agree with you on that. I use wx on both windows and gnome respectively, and on both platforms wx widgets look and feel native. The layout system is really simple to use, but powerfull, and if you've done some web design in the past you are going to wrap your head over it just after a few examples. I think the most powerfull feature of the wxwidget toolkit it's a very consistent API. Each widget is created in a very similar manner, so is very easy to pick and implement new features of the widget. Which can speed up the learning process quite a bit. I would sincerly hope to see in the future a python distribution that incorporates wxwidgets as its basic gui toolkit instead of tkinter. > > > Dave Cook > -- > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list > -- Please visit this site and play my RPG! http://www.1km1kt.net/rpg/Marinci.php My Poetry Book: http://www.lulu.de/browse/book_view.php?fCID=222964&fBuyItem=5 My OS Projects: http://lab.linux.hr/~nstjelja/drawit/
