Hello Again,

Right now i am working on a program that will serve in similar ways as a telnet client. I have the command prompt to send the data to the server working alright, but i need a good way to display the data. I am looking for a fast refreshing text panel of some sort. If any body has a suggestion id like to hear it.

There is nothing that jumps out at me as being a great fit, but then it should be fairly easy to roll your own, especially if you use a monospaced font.

Im not sure what you mean by rolling it. Could you show me an example?

Thanks again Robin

In the USA "roll your own" means to do it yourself. There are a few examples of custom controls in the library, see stattext.py and buttons.py for a couple of them. Another that is more complex than a label or a button is in wxPython/lib/editor.
