+1 for wxPython, - I think I saw a tutorial for anjuta which was a dev platform that would call glade or wx...<br><br>Though this might not be the right venue, I would like to see a basic set-up of the eclipse platform for python/django/web programming. It could sorta be shoe-horned into a linux presentation. <br>

QT is something I was considering. I'm putting it off until later so I<br>
can learn C++ now, but it would be nice to be able to do basic GUI<br>
stuff. That's why I'm looking at some of the lighter weight libraries.<br>
