Python is just the language. It's probably more akin to C than to a development environment like VB or VFP. GUIs are more like add-ons rather than a fundamental part of Python itself. That's one of the reasons that you can have several GUI choices, like wxPython, Tkinter, and Qt - they aren't part of the language itself. It would definitely be smart to get a handle on Python before you start trying to create applications in Dabo. It would be like creating VB apps without knowing Basic: you can get something that looks OK pretty quickly, but if you want it to do anything useful, you have to write some code, and that means learning the language. -- # p.d. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users
