I find it much easier to get a simple application written and working with Tk than with wx. However, once the size/complexity increases beyond a certain point, I find wx to be less work. > I'm guessing the tk would result in the > smallest executable as well, though I could be very wrong. The last time I compared wx vs tk bundled sizes using py2exe (for a fairly simple application), using tk generated far larger .exe files. When you use Tk, it pulls in a complete TCL implementation as well as the Tk libraries (which contain way more library files than wx -- IIRC, there was a _lot_ of localization stuff in the Tk libraries). -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! ... he dominates the at DECADENT SUBWAY SCENE. gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
