Hi all,
I'm still busy getting a grip on the basics of Python, but I am also
starting to feel a GUI-itch. What little looking I have done at Tkinter made
me think I ought wait until I've a few more notches in my programmer's belt ;-)
But I was wondering if anygui (http://anygui.sourceforge.net/) could be seen
as going some distance towards PyNewbieGui? Again, I don't know too much
(indeed, I'm partly looking for opinions of this tool), but from what I've
read, it seems designed to be a "as little fuss as possible" GUI tool.
Anyone with experience to confirm this idea or disabuse me of it?
Best to all,
Brian vdB
