There are Python bindings to most GUI toolkits (GTK+, Qt, fltk, wxWindows, and Tk come to mind). You could use any of them. They're all usable in GNU/Linux. -- Tk is a mature, small, and simple toolkit. The Python binding to Tk is called Tkinter. -- GTK+ is what most Gnome apps use. The Python binding is PyGTK. http://www.pygtk.org/ -- Qt is what most KDE apps use. The Python binding is called PyQt. -- wxWindows is a lot like MS Windows MFC if I recall correctly. The Python binding to wxWindows is called wxPython. http://www.wxpython.org/ -- For a terminal-based text-mode character-cell display program, you could use ncurses. http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/curses/ http://gnosis.cx/publish/programming/charming_python_6.html ---John -- (remove zeez if demunging email address) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
