For the curious: Not the look & feel (albeit I prefer KDE on
linux over Gnome, which is a Qt/GTK thing and thus affects wx
look & feel as well), but the code & the designers.
I've never used any of the designers, but I agree 100% that
wxPython code is nasty ugly. wxPython has a very un-Pythonic
API that's is, IMO, difficult to use. The API isn't really
Robin Dunn's fault: wxPython is a very thin wrapper around
wxWidgets, so it largely retains the same nasty low-level C++
API that wxWidgets has. I presume much of wxPython is
generated in some automated fasion (a la swing). There have
been a couple attempts to wrap wxPython in a cleaner, more
Pythonic API, but they've have limited success (wax is the one
I can think of off the top of my head).
WAX doesn't seem to have been maintained
since 2004.
