wxPython : getting started

[Peter Milliken]

Magnus,

Not sure what gave you that idea - there is a Pmw mailing list and very,
very occasionally email activity on it - I believe the product is
maintained, it is most likely considered "complete" in and of itself.
Certainly if there is some object that is not present in the collection then
you can easily create one to your specifications/requirements using the
MegaWidget and MegaArchetype base classes.

Even elements that are not in the Pmw collection - such as elements found in
the BLT are catered for with the Pmw - BLT interface and the "A Users Guide
to Pmw.Blt".

Perhaps the authors should create a new "release" every 6 months or so just
so people don't get this (mistaken) impression - I am just not sure what
they should put into each new "release" :-)

Regards,
Peter
