The pain level all depends on how you go about it. If you try to builda GUI from scratch, it will be very painful. If you use a toolkit, thenit's pretty close to working with Swing. WxPython is the only one I've used, so Ican't give you a "best one". I can say that going from Swing to wxPython wasn't too difficult.
Here is the python wiki page with a bunch of the different ways to makecross-platform GUIs, if you want to just look at a couple. http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming ----- Original Message ---- From: Chris Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: python-list@python.org Sent: Wednesday, April 9, 2008 9:54:33 PM Subject: How is GUI programming in Python? I've always had an interest in Python and would like to dabble in it further. I've worked on a few very small command line programs but nothing of any complexity. I'd like to build a really simple GUI app that will work across Mac, Windows, and Linux. How painful is that going to be? I used to be really familiar with Java Swing a few years ago. I imagine it will be similar. Next, what would you say is the best framework I should look into? I'm curious to hear opinions on that.
