Take qt if you can - the upcoming version qt4 will be GPLed for windows (which means better binary support for windows), but recently the qt3 x11 free edition got adapted to windows. I use that myself, and have to say that I'm pretty impressed - apart from some real minor glitches (e.g. the date entry widget shows some highlighting problems) things work smooth. And qt is a fantastic toolkit. And very well worth the money you have to buy it - the time and effort saved using a well-designed orthogonal toolkit will make the cost amortise pretty quick. Especially when used in conjunction with PyQt. -- Regards, Diez B. Roggisch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
