Ok, that was more than two advantages! :) But those are good points. I was wondering about the size of wx too. Probably huge compared to Tkinter. > And on a personal note: I find it *buttugly*.

To me it seems very nice, but what do I know! I also have started using XRC (putting the GUI in an xml file instead of in the program), so I see less of the code clutter my program. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
