Regarding Mac support for wxWindows, this is a concern for me as NIP's token Mac user (and hence the other NIP'ers working on this - Chris and Andy) :-). You can run X Windows apps under MacOS X, either with the free XonX package or Tenon's XTools. I suspect this means we'll be able to run wxWindows for X Windows under MacOS X. I'll try this when I have time. Running the X Window version doesn't solve the problem for pre-MacOS X people, but then again they can't run Zope either, so I don't think that's too much of a problem. If I can't get wxWindows running under MacOS X, we'll just have to come up with something based on Cocoa.... then you'll all be sorry! (evil laugh). (the running joke at NIP is we're trying to ease Chris W. off his unfortunate addiction to Windows - MacOS X may be a more comfortable upgrade for him than Linux, if only because hardware looks cool).

MAC ? By only concern about wxPython vs. TKinter is lack of Macintosh support... Does anyone here have Mac wxPython experience?
It would be a real shame if Macs could not be consistently supported by the IDE. I think it is possible to have wxWindows/ wxPython running on Macs, but my impression is that Mac support is out of sync, and lagging behind. EPople are working it. How hard I don't know.. MacOSX will no doubt improve this dilemma. Compatibility really needs to be checked out.
An older [January 2000] Mac Port by Stefan Csomor is http://www.advanced.ch/wxwin/ There are newer 'unstable 'versions moved to Sourceforge.. [snip]
