Well, that is a good point. I suppose everyone will have a differing opinion on that, particularly in terms of goals. For me, I'd like to see a single package, which includes a GUI designer, script editor with colorizing, debugger, interactive console, some sort of module browser for functions and syntax, resource viewer, something similar to package manager... and a basic set of modules for x-plat development work. Then, some tool which helps to output the whole thing as a runtime package. I realize that is asking a lot. I really do. I also think that there is money to be made by the company or person who delivers something like that... providing it is pretty tight and cohesive. I've tried the ones that have been mentioned. They all work pretty buggy in my experience. (Not PyObjC or PyQt... those I have not tried.) -- Troy Rollins RPSystems, Ltd. www.rpsystems.net _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
