OT: Python GUI libraries

Hi All,

You don't necessarily have to pay the license for WIn, if you buy the
"C++ GUI programming with Qt 3" book it includes a GPL'ed version of the
Qt 3 libraries and SDK for Win32. I've been using Qt for quite a while
for cross-platform work and it's one of the best object-oriented GUI
frameworks I've come across. Python's easy integration and extensiblity
trough C++ makes it relatively easy to prototype your code in Python and
replace possible performance bottlenecks later with C++ code without
having to jump through hoops or switch framework.

Best bet IMHO ;-)

Cheers,

Erik
