Re: Why doesn't IDLE editor windows have horizontal scrollbars?

FWIW the Zeus editor uses the MDI interface model: http://www.zeusedit.com/lookmain.html Zeus also has syntax highlighting and code folding for the Python language. You can even write Zeus macros in Python. NOTE: Zeus is shareware (45 day trial period). Jussi Jumppanen Author of: Zeus for Windows Editor -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: WYSIWYG wxPython IDE....?
Luke Skywalker wrote: To me, the very fact that the only solution if you don't want to carry a multi-megabyte widget set with you (either wxWidgets or QT is to go the MFC way (which a lot of C developers seem to hate) through Have you ever tried to use MFC in anything other than a simple application? MFC is nothing more than a poorly designed C++ layer over the Windows Win32 API. One of it's greatest contributions to the world of software development is it clearly demonstrates how NOT to design a C++ application framework. At least wxWidgets does offer an OOP look and feel, which is no simple task given that wxWidgets is also a multi-platform application framework. Add to this the fact that MFC is no longer supported by Microsoft (ie there will be no ew version or bug fixes for future versions of Windows) and the choice is simple. I would definitely not be choosing MFC.

My search for a good IDE to support my activities Take a look at Zeus: http://www.zeusedit.com/lookmain.html doing development for Python in the Windows environment Zeus only runs on Windows. But it's all that I have -- a 500MHz PC with 64MB and Win98 SE. Zeus should run fine on this machine. If you added another stick of 64MB it would run better :) Jussi Jumppanen Author of: Zeus for Windows (New version 3.93 out now) The C/C++, Cobol, Java, HTML, Python, PHP, Perl programmer's editor Home Page: http://www.zeusedit.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
