For better or worse python interpreter comes with Tk. So, if you develop your application to use Tk, as ugly as it may look, it will work in every platform supported by the python interpreter. However, if you want to use pygtk, you still have to install gtk runtime. When using haskell, can't you just make a static binary on MacOS and Windows, though? Why wouldn't that work? _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
