 You have to have the Tcl Tix package installed--the Python module just
 wraps it.

Thanks, but I still find it strange that the tix so is not included
for the Mac. When dll was missing in Python 2.5 it was considered a
bug (www.python.org/sf/1568240).

Tix and OS X

Does python not ship with Tix for OS X? I know there was an issue with
2.5.0 and Tix on Windows, and upgrading to 2.5.1 fixed it.

Re: Python, Forms, Databases

[Jeff Reavis]

You should check out Spyce:
http://spyce.sourceforge.net/

It will work under CGI as well as Fast CGI, ModPython, or its own built
in server.

It also has an ASP/JSP like syntax:
http://spyce.sourceforge.net/docs/doc-lang_asp.html

If you plan on getting a new hosting company you might also want to
look at TurboGears and Django.

Re: Python for Webscripting (like PHP)

[Jeff Reavis]

You might want to check out spyce. It uses a server page model (like
jsp and php) so you can embed python in html. It has the standard stuff
you would need for making a web site (session support, etc) and also
contains features like custom tags.

Sven,
It may be the default gtk font settings. This can be changed in the
.gtkrc file.

Re: Web framework

[Jeff Reavis]

You may also want to look at Spyce. It is similar to JSP,PHP, or ASP.
There are some good docs and examples at the site.

Re: python cvs interface?

[Jeff Reavis]

Corey,
WinCvs can use python for macros, you might want to look at their code:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/cvsgui/cvsgui/PythonLib/cvsgui/

You may also want to look at viewcvs, which is written in Python.

Re: advice needed for simple python web app

[Jeff Reavis]

You might also want to try out Spyce.
http://spyce.sourceforge.net/index.html

It works in proxy mode, with mod_python, or even as cgi.

Some examples:
