If your needs are very basic, you can stick with the tk module that comes
with python. It's not really feature-packed, but it's maintained and
pretty cross-platform.

Otherwise, you can pick any supported widget set you like and use the
proper python bindings. You didn't tell us which OS you'd work with, hence
we can't tell you what's the best choice (if there's any).

BTW you should be able to enjoy GTK+, QT or Swing (if using Jython on
Java) or anything found in MS.NET (if using IronPython) - or you can go
for wxPython as well.

GUI Designers are widget-set related - I can suggest gazpacho for GTK+.

You might want to take a look at Dabo (www.dabodev.com). Check out the
screencast.

Yes.

I suspect you are confusing "IDE" with "GUI builder". FWIW, you don't
*need* any IDE nor GUI builder - a decent code editor is enough. Now if
you really want a GUI builder, you'll have to choose one that's tied to
your GUI toolkit and that run on your platform.

OK, what are my choices for an IDE/GUI development tool that runs on XP?

Thanks

From Linux guys, I hear that PyScripter is the best,
they also want to have it, but unfortunately it only runs under windows ;-)

That depends on the GUI toolkit you are using. My suggestion:

CPython with wxPython: wxFormBuilder

Cpython with PyQt: BlackAdder

CPython with PyGTK: GLADE 3

Jython: whatever there is for Swing or SWT.

IronPython: MS VisualStudio

Cpython + PyWin32: GUI with VB/Delphi/C#. Python ActiveX server (can
use MFC).

People using this combination apparently prefer Eric, these days:
