Generic GUI Wrapper For Python

Posted by timothy on Friday October 26, 2001 @11:33PM from the operating-systems-shouldn't-matter dept.

An Anonymous Coward writes "IBM is working on a generic GUI wrapper to allow Python developers to write cross-platform GUIs. The anygui project will expose a common set of functions to the programmer and choose which backend gui toolkit to use for the given platform: TK, WIN32, GTK, Bethon, etc. Currently the software is in an alpha stage. The article also has some example code." Update: 10/27 23:53 GMT by T : Magnus Lie Hetland wrote to point out that though this article is hosted at IBM, "Anygui has nothing to do with IBM. It is, in fact, an independent Open Source project currently hosted at SourceForge."

You might be interested to know that this project has nothing to do with IBM. There is an article about it on IBM developerWorks, but that's it.

Also, it's not David Mertz's project, the project leader is Magnus Lie Hetland.
