Hello,

About the delay of the combo box(bringing the data) at ui wx, I did 2
test scripts on the combo box(one for GDK and one for WX) with 10000
entries(data).
The conclusion was chocking(PowerMac G5 2000 Dual)!  2sec in GDK
and 179sec in WX !!!
I was thinking that GDK library is more practical and I was wondering
why you removed it?
Should I search for another library that will have the great interface
of WX and the speed of curses?
What do you think?

import wx
from random import sample
import datetime

a = datetime.datetime.now()

class ComboBoxFrame(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self, None, -1, 'Combo Box Example', size=(350, 300))
        panel = wx.Panel(self, -1)
        sampleList = map(str,(sample(xrange(10000),9000)))
        wx.StaticText(panel, -1, "Select one:", (15, 15))
        wx.ComboBox(panel, -1, "default value", (15, 30), wx.DefaultSize,sampleList, wx.CB_DROPDOWN)
        wx.ComboBox(panel, -1, "default value", (150, 30), wx.DefaultSize,sampleList, wx.CB_SIMPLE)
                        
app = wx.PySimpleApp()
ComboBoxFrame().Show()
b = datetime.datetime.now()
c = b - a
print c.seconds
app.MainLoop()
