Dear wxPython users,
I'm working on some *new* reference documentation for wxPython,
that is *radically different* than most reference documentation.
I'm looking for *people NEW to wxPython,* as well as the merely
curious, to help me refine this technique.
I just gave this a quick look. I really prefer this documentation style over a lot of other styles. It's a bit like the pictures I make in my mind when I try to understand and remember things. It's compact and has all the essentials things in it. The small pictures say more than a thousand words.
I agree, and often do it in similar way, preferable as code snippets.
Now I am not new to wxPython so I might just like it because it's very similar to what I have in my head 
I wouldn't call this "reference" documentation though. For me "reference" documentation means a full and detailed overview of all classes/functions/... of a piece of software. What you have is something like a quick overview over each topic which will suffice in 80% of all cases. It's more an overview than a reference to me.
I think this could be a valuable resource to beginners, but I better let them talk themselves
Well I'm using Python for about a year (wxPython a little shorter),
but I often feel myself as a newbie !!
I think this kind of information is very usefull, and not only for beginners,
but also for people who normally program in different languages (I use Python only in my spare time),
Therefore I'ld love to have a wxPython reference card, like there is for Python:
python_pqrc [L.Pointal]
But to go back to the idea of the OP,
maybe it can be extended a little to be of even more value,
- put it in something like an html document, where the code snippets are some kind of special links,
clicking on such a link will insert the code in the editor
- it can become a complete reference, by using wiki-like technics, foldable panels hide the not so often needed information
In general, I think a lot of time is spent in finding the "exact spelling of a language",
or in even more general terms the "exact spelling of a knowledge domain".
That's the reason why a program like LabView, or an OS like Windows is so popular,
they hand you out the "spelling rules"
In most of the applications I build, I put in a "code snippet manager", see middle of the page here
http://oase.uci.kun.nl/~mientki/data_www/pylab_works/pw_gui_controls.html
Unfortunately most of the tools I use myself (like IDE's) don't have such a tool 
succes, hope to see more !!
cheers,
Stef
