    Article on wxPython ToolKit for Mac OS X

    Hi there!

    Just wanted to let people know in this group that I have recently
    (April 24th) published an introductory article on wxPython and Mac OS
    X. It is available here: http://www.macdevcenter.com/

    Hope someone finds it useful.

    Regards,

    Jeremiah

          Nice article, but it has an inaccuracy:

          "The first thing we need to do is download wxPython so we can begin
          creating applications."

          This is not entirely correct. The stock 10.4 that came in a G5 bought in
          June has wx built-in:

          cabin % /usr/bin/python
          Python 2.3.5 (#1, Oct 5 2005, 11:07:27)
          [GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1809)] on darwin
          Type "help", "copyright" , "credits" or "license" for more information.
          >>import wx
          >>>
          Of course the stock python is 2.3, but its very cool that one can depend
          on wx being present on 10.4+ machines. So there is no need to bundle
          python/wx with your app when developing for Macs. (Yes, I noticed the
          author is running OS X 10.3.)

              Oh yes, a mactel (Quad Xeon) bought in January?

                  Wow. That is cool. I didn't know that.
