a module to use Tkinter syntax with wxPython widgets ?

wxPython Users

Hi,

I am using wxPython under Linux and windows and I find this package

very powerfull.

Since I worked for a long time with python/Tkinter, I found that the syntax

used by the Tkinter package is more powerfull and efficient. May be this

is not the reality but this my point of view.

I noted also that the syntax and structure of object was a point for a discussion

about comparison between Tkinter and wxPython.

Then, I writed a “wrapper” in order to use wxPython or Tkinter widgets

without changing any line of the source. So, the example code :

···

root=Tk()

f = Frame(root)

def handler():

print 'Hi everybody'

b=Button(f, text=‘button 1’, command=handler)

b.pack(side=‘left’, pady=10)

v=IntVer()

v.set(1)

b=Checkbutton(f, text=‘button 1’, variable=v)

b.pack(side=‘left’, pady=10)

f.pack(side=‘top’, fill=x)

root.mainloop()

works even with wxPython or Tkinter widgets.

My question is :

Is somebody interested to use this package ? Is the wxPython team is

interested to insert it in the wxPython distribution ?

Your answers will tell me if I send my package to the free software community…

Thanks.

I think that depends on how much of wxpython it wraps (among other things)

You could post the source code somehere... I'm ready to take a look... :smiley:

I think for sure there'll be a lot of intrest for
this. An earlier attempt is the dead(?) project
http://anygui.sourceforge.net/ Maybe it's a good idea
to launch it first on sourceforge and than see which
direction it takes.

Here is the very first revision. I send a file for testing all classes.

Tell me what do you think about this.

well... actualy I meant put the code somewhere on the net and provide a link for this mailing list.
Anyway... I took a look at the code... I never was a fan of Tk so... you'll need someone else for a more unbiased perspective :smiley:
