[python-win32] Windows GUI programming with Python?

[siegfried]

I just finished trying out the sample program scribble in "Python
Programming in Win32". While I

carefully cut and pasted from my soft copy of the book, I could not

create a new document. When I finally found the source code download

URL hidden in the chm file, the zip file was corrupted!

 

This program is more what I am looking for:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/ActivePython/1775844

 

Unfortunately it does not work. Apparently I don't have to use
ActiveStatePython (according to a poster in the nntp group). Where can I
find similar source code that works 

that displays a simple window and lets me call other exotic window

functions like LoadKeyboardLayout, MapVirtualKeyEx, ToUnicodeEx. That

latter function produces Unicode strings and since I don't know how to
display

Cyrillic in a console mode app, I'm thinking I'll create a window to

display it in. I'll need to know how to load a font in python too ---

anyone got an example of that too?

 

 

 

thanks!

Siegfried
