PythonCard 0.8.2

PythonCard is a GUI construction kit for building cross-platform desktop applications on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, using the Python language.
The PythonCard motto is "Simple things should be simple and complex things should be possible."
PythonCard is for you if you want to develop graphical applications quickly and easily with a minimum of effort and coding. Apples HyperCard is one of our inspirations; simple, yet powerful.
PythonCard works on wxPython. If you are already familiar with wxPython, just think of PythonCard as a simpler way of doing wxPython programs with a whole lot of samples and tools already in place for you to copy and subclass and tools to help you build cross-platform applications.
