I have been using Tkinter for several years now. Recently I have been thinking about switching to something else that may have a sharper appearance. However I'm not sure what that may be, and if that something else is *that* much better than what I'm already using.
Does everyone agree that wxPython looks best on Windows? I've also read in a couple of places where Dabo looks pretty good as well. So if someone were to pick a UI that gave the best appearance, what would they choose? Kevin Walzer wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Now i began to learn GUI programming.
