[Pythoncard-users] Is PythonCard goal to replace wxPython

[Nicolas F. <ni...@ya...>]

After few weeks working with wxPython, I must say that's a wonderful 
library and my first choice for GUI programming.  However, there's few 
things inherited from the C++ API that could be more python-friendly.

Before deciding to post a msg on wxPython newsgroup about possibilities 
of enhancing the API, I made some searches to find the existence of 
PythonCard.  Still, I'm not sure if PythonCard goal is only to provide a 
VB-like tool, or also a next-gen API for wxPython (I understand 
PythonCard is at the moment a layer over wxPython)?

By the way, there's two things I haven't seen in the TODO list (I may 
have miss something), but basically:

Make register of some events easier:
wx.Button(parent, callback=self.onButtonPress)

Support python iterations:
for child in myTreeItem.children: ...

Also, I'm not a VB-like user since I like to use things like sizers, but 
if you want to simplify the use of sizers, on solution could be to 
reduce the number of possible sizers by providing something a 
FlexGridSizer with capabilities for multi-cells widgets.  This is done 
in html tables, and I guess there's a lot of html editors that can be 
checked for ideas on interface.  This kind of sizer eliminates the need 
of BoxSizer, GridSizer, etc.  I think Java has one named GridBagLayout 
or something like that.
