Found a very nice, small, cross-platform GUI toolkit for Python.

Interesting!  One of the commercial apps I'm involved (C++ not python)
in uses SDL as its GUI with windows etc built on top of it.  It means
that it looks exactly the same on all supported platforms and since it
usually runs full screen that is fine.  I imagine this GUI toolkit
fits the same niche.

Presumably since it uses SDL then all the GUI will appear in one
window?  So windows within windows in the MDI style?
