Certainly, if wxPython doesn't work, you don't have any chance with
PythonCard. Unfortunately, the folks on this list are not too likely to
be able help with wxPython problems - but if you want to give us a quick
description of the problem you ran into, someone may be able to help.
Though, honestly, you'd be better sending the same problem description
to the wxPython list - they're pretty helpful.
I heard enough about problems with multiple versions to make me very
conservative about changing versions -I've essentially done a full set
of de-installs of old versions, followed by a full set of installs of a
new set (keeping the old versions on a backup machine for safety). Can
be a bit of a pain - but I've never had a problem other than the time it
took.
(This is all on Windows - that may make it easier).

Rev is quite fun too - but beware it does still have some issues on
Linux. It has the big advantage of the most helpful email help list I
have ever seen, so if you have any problems, there's plenty of help
available.
