I'm working on a python gtk glade sqlite machinist calculator. I have the thread tab pretty complete.

Anyone want to test it out?

I can try... what would you use for a help contents window? A dialog box or something like that?

I refresh the zip file as I go along... this morning I fixed the ISO drill bit calculator it was borked...

Hi John

This link in the python docs, but I don't know if it builds a static or linked executable. Might be OK if static but otherwise would rely upon installed libraries that no windoze user is going to have.
docs.python.org/2/using/windows.html#py2exe

Maybe you should switch to Qt for completely portable cross platform code! :evil:

I've tried Qt in the past but didn't get very far... how portable is Qt?

Extremely, every major platform including all the embedded ones.
That is C++, don't know if the pyQt bindings are on all platforms



This is a comparison with GTK, but outlines Qt quite well

So it would be best to use C++ with Qt?

When I checked my computer I have 5 different QT's on the menu

Qt3 Assistant
Qt 4 Assistant
Qt 4 Designer
Qt 4 Linguist
Qt Creator

Which one do I start with?

I actually like the Qt4 Designer better... one thing I really like is the precise placement of things on the screen.

Lets see if I can do a "Hello World" and go from there.
