If you don't want to learn MFC (which is a headache!), there's wxPython,
which i'm looking at now.. its very nice. :) Check the contributed download
part of the python website...

There's pygtk, which uses the gtk toolkit.

As far as I know, GTk has not been ported to the Win32 platform, yet.

And i wanted to propose pyQT/pyKDE :-) Seriously QT works for Windows, too but I
think the bindings are for real operating systems only, aren't they?

I appreciate this useful list.

Also ... I noticed a refernce to `fltk' on this list, and I downloaded
and built it. However, I don't notice any Python support as part of
this distribution, and I'm wondering why `fltk' is on this "Python GUI"
list. Is there somewhere else where a Python interface to `fltk'
might exist?

Thanks in advance.

You're welcome. Please be aware that I often
know more than what appears in these documents;
I might not get around to expressing it readably,
though, until someone expresses a definite interest.
When you ask particular questions, as you do below,
sometimes I can unpack other notes of mine and
update the documents to make them more useful.
That's what I'm working to do now with the fltk
reference.

I've sent a copy of your question to a couple
of people likely to know more.

We are working on it - and perl support too. While FLTK doesn't play games
with the preprocessor, it does use a lot of function overloading. Bjorn
Petterson contributed a python idiom to allow overloaded functions. It's about
2/3 of the way completed - at least for an open alpha release. I've got a
handfull of the fltk test programs implemented in Python. In a few weeks,
we'll be asking for people to help test the wrappers.

While its true that GTK is being ported to Win32, I don't think that pyGTK can
be used on Win32 yet. (for one there is a GTK.py and a gtk.py in the
distribution, hmmm tain't gonna work on winders)
