What you ask for is somewhat hard to find easy answers for. But here is something that might help: 1. Example of Python function to a C library as a callback: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/cd4a6aa29e75e72d/6c8eeeffba9fa14b?lnk=st&q=%22Python+function+to+a+C+library+as+a+callback%22&rnum=1&hl=en#6c8eeeffba9fa14b 2. Venster, a highly native Windows GUI toolkit for Python based on the ctypes ffi library: http://venster.sourceforge.net/htdocs/index.html Khalid -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
