1 | wxPython README | |
2 | --------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | Welcome to the wonderful world of wxPython! | |
5 | ||
6 | So where do you go from here? The best thing to do is to run the demo | |
7 | and use its source code to help you learn how to use wxPython. Most | |
8 | of the classes available are demonstrated there, and you can view the | |
9 | sources directly in the demo so it is designed to help you learn. If | |
10 | you are on Windows or OS X then you can run the demo just by double | |
11 | clicking it's icon. If you are on Linux/Unix then change to the | |
12 | directory containing the demo and type: | |
13 | ||
14 | python demo.py | |
15 | ||
16 | There are also some sample mini applications available for you to run | |
17 | and to play with as a learning exercise. | |
18 | ||
19 | The next thing you should do is join the wxPython-users maillist where | |
20 | you can interact with a community of other users and developers who | |
21 | are willing to help you learn, answer questions and solve problems. | |
22 | To join the mail list just go to this web page and follow the | |
23 | instructions there: | |
24 | ||
25 | http://wxpython.org/maillist.php | |
26 | ||
27 | There is also a good set of class reference documentation available | |
28 | for wxPython, but currently it is geared for the C++ user. This may | |
29 | be a little daunting at first, but with a little practice you'll | |
30 | easily be able to "mentally translate" from the C++ shown into Python. | |
31 | (See http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/C_2b_2bGuideForwxPythoneers | |
32 | for a little help on this process.) Not all classes documented are | |
33 | available in Python, but most of the GUI related classes are. | |
