Is this hard to do? I have not looked at it at all yet.

Would we be better off first trying to use the SWIG that is used in wxPython as
I understand Robin has specially modified it to be used with wxWindows? It also
at least comes in the wxWindows CVS tree.

I would ask Robin but since I do not understand any of the issues, it would not
be much of a useful discussion. Perhaps Vadim you could ask Robin what modifications
he has made before we go out and reinvent the wheel and introduce another dependency
we might not need?
