Python GUI help (or prior to... ;))

[ryanVickers]

I am learning python and I think I know enough now to move on to a basic gui - it doesn't have to use the proper theme or anything, just create a window with some sliders, buttons, etc. and hook them to code. If at all possible I would like it to be event driven.

Any ideas of what I should be looking for?
ex. I've heard there are sub-sections, if you will, of python like pyGTK and pyQT - I don't need anything fancy - I just want it to be easy and if at all possible event driven

See my wiki.

EasyGUI is extremly easy to use, but isn't event driven. Might be useful to play with or for simple functionality.

wxWidgets is what I recommend, but that is just an opinion. Tkinter, wxWidgets, pyGTK, and others may be your cup of tea (coffee, beer, vinegar)

meh, vinegar's good

ok, I'll have a look at those and see how it goes!

I was serious with the vinegar reference. Not white vinegar of course, but a little bit of honey and apple cider vinegar in a cup of water...great filling and healthy drink.

Real men just mix all three of them in a big mug and slam it!

[ryanVickers]

fascinating... I was going for white vinegar - oh and you stir in a bit of bauxite and red phosphorus; its great!

I am sure that non males could do the same

Also, I am 19, and not legally allowed to drink some beverages. (I don't plan on it either)

I think we are OT. A psychologist should come into this forum and review what part of the human mind makes small comments become the foci of conversations. We'd be famous.

and no one comments on my concoction of some dynamite ingredients...

Granted, my formula may be a little dated, but I'd not put it past a hundred and 20 years or so...
The gluey stuff in the wick, something to go with the sulphur...

EDIT: Wait, no... that's something else... but aluminium is bad too!

I'm in the same position as Ryan, plus;
I tried out some code with "import wx" which worked great. I later imported Tkinter, which worked too. Trouble is wx now doesn't seem to work. Is is a choice of either/or or is it my own idiocy?

I tried the vinegar slammer but it came shooting out my nose,

You can use both, but not together..so a program would either be written using wx or tkinter. At least thats what I think.
