<H2>Why use wxPython?</H2>
<P>
So why would you want to use wxPython over just C++ and wxWindows?
Personally I prefer using Python for everything. I only use C++ when
I absolutely have to eek more performance out of an algorithm, and even
then I ususally code it as an extension module and leave the majority
of the program in Python.<P>
Another good thing to use wxPython for is quick prototyping of your
wxWindows apps. With C++ you have to continuously go though the
edit-compile-link-run cycle, which can be quite time comsuming. With
Python it is only an edit-run cycle. You can easily build an
application in a few hours with Python that would normally take a few
days or longer with C++. Converting a wxPython app to a C++/wxWindows app
should be a straight forward task.<P>
