-is a GUI toolkit that combines the most attractive attributes of Qt,
-Tk, Motif, and GTK+ in one powerful and efficient package. It is
-implemented in \Cpp. wxWindows supports two flavors of \UNIX{}
-implementation: GTK+ and Motif, and under Windows, it has a standard
-Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) appearance, because it uses Win32
-widgets.  There is a Python class wrapper, independent of Tkinter.

-wxWindows is much richer in widgets than \refmodule{Tkinter}, with its

+wxPython is a cross-platform GUI toolkit for Python that is built
+around the popular \ulink{wxWidgets}{http://www.wxwidgets.org/} \Cpp{}
+toolkit.  It provides a native look and feel for applications on
+Windows, Mac OS X, and \UNIX{} systems by using each platform's native
+widgets where ever possible, (GTK+ on \UNIX-like systems).  In
+addition to an extensive set of widgets, wxPython provides classes for
+online documentation and context sensitive help, printing, HTML
+viewing, low-level device context drawing, drag and drop, system
+clipboard access, an XML-based resource format and more, including an
+ever growing library of user-contributed modules.  Both the wxWidgets
+and wxPython projects are under active development and continuous
+improvement, and have active and helpful user and developer
+communities.
