[wxGlade] wxGlade - possible features?

[Charl P. B. <c.p...@it...>]

Dear Alberto and Marco,

Thanks again for a great program!  I've been using XRCed until now, but
definitely prefer wxGlade.

In anycase, I have three possible feature requests.  If you guys don't have
the time, I could implement them myself and submit the patches.

1. tooltips - you are probably planning these as it is... they're easy to
   implement. 
   
2. some way to have the generated python code assign wxNewId()s
   automatically to widgets that have some specific symbolic ID assigned by the
   user, for instance:
   - on the button properties common tab, I enter in the Id field:
     AUTO_ASSIGN_TEST_BUTTON_ID
   - then, when the python is  generated, the top of the file (or the class
     __init__) will have:
     TEST_BUTTON_ID = wxNewId()
     and the button will be instantiated with:
     self.test_button = wxButton(self, TEST_BUTTON_ID, "test", size=(-1,-1),
                                 tooltip="This is a test button")
   - now when I import this generated python file into my application, I can
     assign events to the symbolic id TEST_BUTTON

3. some way to call the code-generator from the command-line, e.g.:
   codegen --to-python stl_view_frame.xml
   so that one can have .py files automatically generated by a Makefile

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Charl
