slax (or slackware) and wxpython ?

Hello list,
I try to get wxpython running on slax live-cd but i make no progress.
I use the current slax cd from www.slax.org (full and popcorn version)
and want wxpython to work with python2.5 or python2.4.

My problem is that i get errors about missing GTK modules and i can not
figure out what to install or compile first to get wxpython running.

my goal is to get drpython and rurple running with slax. Those two
programs need wxpython.

I am able to make slax modules from slackware packages.

greetings,
  -Horst

You can try installing this package:

http://www.linuxpackages.net/search_view.php?by=name&name=wxpython&ver=11.0

If it doesn't work I think slax doesn't have some gtk libraries that
wxPython need.

linuxpackages.net may also have wxGTK available.

as far as i understand i miss some critical libwx package.

There is no libwx-gtk package on the slackware netsite.
Wich packages / modules do i have to install so that the wxpython
package works ?

I used the wxpython 2.8.0.1 slackware package from
http://www.linuxpackages.net/search_view.php?by=name&name=wxpython&ver=11.0

and converted it into a slax module with tgz2mo. (also replaced
python2.4 with python2.5: mo2dir, dir2mo)

I have downloaded and installed the slackware package and saw that
wxWidgets libs are not in that package. As Rich Shepard said you have
to download wxGTK-2.8.0 package as well. I didn't know that.

Maybe you can merge these two packages into one.

thanks for the link.
I was able to use a wxpython-package from an italian site (slacky.it?)
together with wolvix (www.wolvix.org) linux.

It works, but i have to transform it from python2.4 into python2.5

Still enjoying using Stani's Python Editor!

I was editing a file when I accidentally stumbled across a keyboard shortcut which enlarged the fonts in the editor, CTRL-B. This "stumble" was actually quite useful as I can now read what I've been writing!!! Can someone tell me how to go the other way, and reduce the size of the font; preferably with another shortcut? Thanks.

Best regards,
Tim Grove

Unless Stani has removed the 'bound by default' shortcuts, holding down
the control key and tapping the plus/equals key zooms in (makes the font
bigger), while tapping the minus/underscore key zooms out (makes the
font smaller).

Those bindings should work on most any scintilla-derived editor.

In addition I thought that using the mouse scroll wheel together with
Ctrl will do the same thing. I have no scroll wheel at the moment so I
can't verify this.

Yes, that is correct.
