ANNOUNCE: FXPy 0.99.172 Released

[Lyle Johnson]

Apologies in advance if this shows up repeatedly. This is the third time in
the last few days I've tried to post this announcement and so far it has
failed to appear on the newsgroup.

This is an update of FXPy, a Python extension module which provides
an interface to the FOX cross-platform GUI library:

  Windows Binaries:

What is it?
-----------

FXPy is a Python extension module which provides an interface to the FOX
cross-platform GUI library. With a few minor exceptions, FXPy provides a
complete interface to FOX. FOX is a C++-based toolkit for developing
graphical user interfaces easily and effectively. Some of the
significant features of FOX include:

 *  A rich set of widgets (including dials, shutters, tree lists, and
    many other "modern" widgets).
 *  Powerful but easy-to-use layout managers.
 *  Extensive support for 3-D modeling using OpenGL or Mesa.
 *  Supports the XDND (v4) protocol for drag-and-drop.
 *  Registry for persistent application settings.
 *  Runs natively under Unix/X and Microsoft Windows.
 *  And much, much more!

Please see the FOX home page (URL listed above) for more details about
the FOX library's features. Also consider subscribing to the foxgui-users
mailing list for the latest news about FOX development; again, see the
FOX home page for information on this.
