I htink that there is such an overwhelming amount of stuff in a UI toolkit that it is impossible to create a how-to. Instead, what is needed is a whole series of smaller how-tos for various situations. I mean, there are literally thousands upon thousands of UI behaviors to work with, and no way to describe how to work with low-level drawing primitives in the same document as how to process a menu selection. > When will that wxpython book appear? According to one of the authors, Noel Rappin: "It'll be called _wxPython In Action_ by Noel Rappin and Robin Dunn. I was told to expect that it would be released in November, but the exact date will depend on how quickly we can turn around the production." So while it's still a little ways off, it's certainly within sight! -- -- Ed Leafe -- http://leafe.com -- http://dabodev.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
