    wxPython or wxWidgets

    i need to design a GUI for my python app. i heard of wxWidgets and was
    going to look into that, but then I saw wxPython. Why would I use
    wxPython over wxWidgets?

    thanks

      wxPython is the Python porting of wxWidgets.

              wxPython are the Python bindings to wxWidgets which is a C++ library.

                  Don't want to hijack the thread, but since it's answered already:
                  Has wxWidgets finally arrived at migrating to GTK2? ^^
                  If so, I might consider using wxPython instead of pygtk for that small
                  application I am currently writing. This would help portability a lot
                  (since IIRC, wxWidgets has been designed to work on Windows, too).

                  The last time I checked, wxWidgets was GTK1, although GTK2 has had been
                  long around already. Because of this, and the nasty feeling that I was
                  programming MFC when working with the wxWidgets somewhat drove me away
                  from it with a big "Yuck!", but if it's based on GTK2 now I might risk
                  another glimpse.

                  Thanks,
                  Matthias
