Pickle is used to serialize objects. What does that mean? In short you save your objects( remeber everything is an object in python, strings, lists, touples, dictionaries ...) to an external file (eg. object.pcl) for later usage( eg. you save your users personal data when exiting your software, and then you load it later when your software is restarted by the user. -- Please visit this site and play my RPG! http://www.1km1kt.net/rpg/Marinci.php -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I use wx on both windows and gnome respectively, and on both platforms wx widgets look and feel native. The layout system is really simple to use, but powerfull, and if you've done some web design in the past you are going to wrap your head over it just after a few examples. I think the most powerfull feature of the wxwidget toolkit it's a very consistent API. Each widget is created in a very similar manner, so is very easy to pick and implement new features of the widget. Which can speed up the learning process quite a bit. I would sincerly hope to see in the future a python distribution that incorporates wxwidgets as its basic gui toolkit instead of tkinter. > > > Dave Cook > -- > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list > -- Please visit this site and play my RPG! http://www.1km1kt.net/rpg/Marinci.php My Poetry Book: http://www.lulu.de/browse/book_view.php?fCID=222964&fBuyItem=5 My OS Projects: http://lab.linux.hr/~nstjelja/drawit/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Why not a Python compiler?
If you want to create standalone python applications I'd suggest you to use PyInstaller which is an excellent application that boundles everything you need to run your application in a standalone package. It works on windows, linux and I think mac but i'm not sure.

Re: wx
The module you are talking about is a python GUI toolkit named WxPython, which is a port of the cross platform C++ GUI toolkit wxwidgets. It's an excelent gui toolkit , easy to learn and code on. Well documented and has an excelent community around it. Here are the links for both sites: http://www.wxpython.org/ http://www.wxwidgets.org/ On Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 8:16 PM, Desmond Scott E <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm am a Python novice by chance not choice.
