Hi guys

I have been thinking about beginning to program in Python and was told to use wxWidgets. But the problem is, how do I install it so wxPython will work? Can I install it from the Add/Remove, Synaptic or the command line?
The information on wxPython.org is just not simple enough :D

I'm running Jaunty which has Python 2.6 preinstalled.

So what is the best way to install wxPython?

kind regards,
coldcut

Thank you so much!

...will that work with python 2.6 or do I have to install Python 2.8 myself?

I think the 2.8 is referring the version of wxPython. I don't even think there is a Python 2.8. :)

Okay done...

...but what do I use to program: Editra, PyCrust, PyShell or XRCed ?
