Nothing beats Delphi for the raw design speed and choices for GUI development. .NET is another good option. The good news is you don't have to loose their benefits just because we chose Python. Python for Delphi works quite well to get you the best of both worlds. I develop the app in Python as a library first (Python is great for quick prototyping), make my GUI in Delphi and simply call my library from it. Bundling Python manually into an installer can be a chore but you will get used to it. Once IronPython is complete, it should do the same for .NET. I currently use Boo in a similar fashion.
For simpler UIs, libglade does a great job of seperating concerns. > Are there any easy GUI > builders for any Python-supported toolkits? Most UI toolkits have sort of builders GTK - Glade wxWindows - wxGlade Fox - Fox Dialog Editor FLTK - Fluid TkInter - SpecTcl (I think I remember it exporting to Python) Ofcourse, none are as robust as Delphi's. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
