Qt4 is readily available for Big Three + embedded platforms. I don't think PyQt4 supports such port, though. It's not fully free, either. Personally, I find PyQt4 a span ahead of any competing library, thanks to the clean design of Qt (it's not a case that Qt is leader in the C++ GUI market). It's not fully Pythonic, but it bloody works. And in this messed up GUI world, a toolkit that works is gold. -- Giovanni Bajo _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
