Platform specific message loop problems of mixing pygame an wxPython
notwithstanding for the moment, it's pretty easy to get a pygame
surface into a wxPython bitmap by using a string as an intermediate.
Basically something like this:
image_string = pygame.image.tostring(pygame_surface, "RGB")
imgWx = wx.EmptyImage(image.get_width(), image.get_height())
self.SetClientSize((image.get_width(), image.get_height()))
self.SetMinSize(self.GetSize())
imgWx.SetData(image_string)
wx_bitmap = imgWx.ConvertToBitmap()
then bitmaps can be drawn to the PaintDC for the window with dc.DrawBitmap
