What you are really asking for is what GUI library you should use; every one allows you to draw freely. What do you need to do besides drawing sine waves? You should look at your full range of options; http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming is a good starting point. The "easiest" way to draw might be with those toolkits that offer primarily a canvas to draw on rather than composable widgets. For example, Pyglet (http://pyglet.org/) offers OpenGL contexts with sensible defaults and unobtrusive automation: from pyglet import * from pyglet.gl import * import math win = window.Window(width=700, height=700, caption="sine wave demo", resizable=True) frequency,phase,amplitude=0.1,0.0,0.9 @win.event def on_draw(): half_height=win.height*0.5 glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) glColor3f(0.9, 1.0, 0.8) glBegin(GL_LINE_STRIP) for x in xrange(0,win.width): y=half_height*(1.0+amplitude*math.sin(x*frequency+phase)) glVertex2f(x,y) glEnd() app.run() Regards, Lorenzo Gatti -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
