Comparing means looking for strengths and weaknesses in both
programs in an unbiassed way, but neither am I unbiassed nor
is it my intention to look for negative aspects in any open
source software project. The author of Boa has spent his spare
time (or so I imagine) on his project the same way I have spent
my spare time on the GTK port of wxWindows and the last thing
I am looking for is someone going around trying hard to find
something to criticise in wxGTK. I hope that some magazine
will do a comparison; so far only the American Linux-Magazine
has written a short text about wxDesigner and I was not even
able to get hold of a copy of that one, since ordering from
abroad takes weeks.

Apart from that, anyone can downlaod an evaluation copy from
my homepage and look at what wxDesigner can do what it cannot
do - trying yourself is inevitably always better than relying
on someone else´s judgement. Also, it is never fair to compare
two different products: is wxDesigner´s C++ support relevant
to Python users? You might say no, but giving users the choice
to move from Python to C++ if - just this single time - Python
doesn´t quite [the end of this message was censored by the new
