[Visualpython-users] WPython + wxPython possible ?

[Stef M. <s.m...@ru...>]

hello,

now there's some activity on the list,
I (and many other wxPython users) would love to use VPython from a 
wxPython application.

This doesn't seem to be possible at first sight, because both 
environments claim the main loop
(but I'm not an expert).

There's an example on youtube:

but this could well be 2 separate applications,
communicating in some clever way.
But that's also an acceptable solution.

Any suggestions / answers / links ?

thanks,
Stef Mientki

[Visualpython-users] Would you like to contribute to VPython development?

There are three ancient components of Visual that are pure Python (no 
C++, no multithreading issues, no cross-platform issues) that could 
benefit from some work and improvement: graph.py, controls.py, and text.py.

The case of graph.py is a bit special, because some changes have been 
made to the version that goes with the upcoming Visual 5.00, so it would 
be important to pay attention to the differences. For example, gdots now 
use the new points object rather than letter o's in labels.

If you feel confident in Python programming, please consider taking a 
look at these components and volunteering to improve them. Thanks!
