Hi, I'd like to announce the simple frame buffer module that I wacked together after being fed up with having to create a GUI every time I wanted to illustrate something simple in Python (such as the iterative improvement of some problem). A short sample: import fb # import module f = fb.FrameBuffer() # create an instance f.open(200, 200, "demo") # open a window named "demo" for i in range(10, 190): # simple loop f.fg = (i, i, i) # set fg colour f.plot(i, i) # plot f.flip() # flip buffers raw_input('enter to quit') # wait for keypress f.close() # close window Could be useful if you want students to be able to create simple graphics without having to teach them a GUI. The extension uses SDL to manage the graphics. The extension is available at http://dave.whatever.nu/python/fb/ Comments, suggestions and bug reports are all very welcome :).
