You may very well be referring to me. I mentioned that people who were considering PyGUI as the 'de-facto' standard for Python GUI libraries take a wander through the wxPython demo to see what a generally fully-featured library offers. I also mentioned that while I didn't think that a standard library module would necessarily need to include all of those widgets (or their equivalent), "there are literally dozens of widgets that people would be disappointed if they couldn't have." - Josiah _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
