[wxPython] wxPython and IDE

I'm not sure how, but you did misinterpret me. I don't pirate
software (though I do like to find a way to make my employer pay).
What I wanted was an assist on integrating Boa Constructor's UI
designer and code generator with PythonWorks IDE. Where there is
overlap in functionality between the two, I prefer PythonWorks, even
if it is payware.

I suggest the question is one of Giving, not of receiving.

You shoud either (a) Support the developers of the commercial
software by
buying it, or
(b) Support and use Boa, and contribute code back to it.

Just remember, "TANSTAAFL". ( There ain't no such thing as a
free lunch.)

Either way, at the end of the day, you got the job done. I
don't see that
one is superior over the other,
any more than Python itself, or wxPython is superior. It's
all a bunch of
tradeoffs. Now, there are things that are Definitely Worse.
(Visual Basic,
for instance.) <grin>

Your question was clear to me! in fact I was hoping for a thread on IDE.
