GeezerVison is showing mail.python.org — [Python-Dev] Software Carpentry: GUI Toolkit? [Python-Dev] Software Carpentry: GUI Toolkit?[email protected] [email protected]Mon, 3 Jan 2000 09:02:32 -0500 (EST)
Hi, folks. I'm putting together guidelines for submissions to the Software Carpentry design competition (www.software-carpentry.com), and would like to know what I should recommend as a Python GUI toolkit. As I understand it, the alternatives are: - Tkinter: the "standard" answer, but many people think it's showing its age, and it's an installation and update headaches because of its Tcl dependencies. - some other GUI toolkit: but there's no consensus on which one, and documentation is lacking. - CGI scripts (i.e. all interfaces are web pages): has the virtue of simplicity, but could also make some useful interfaces difficult to build (e.g. no drag and drop), and would require users to run a server, or at least get exec privileges, which can be an installation headache. If I've missed a good answer, or if there's somewhere else I should look for a solution, I'd be grateful for a pointer. Thanks, Greg
