Python GUI?

[robjduk]

Afternoon all,

My ICT teacher wants python deployed which is no problem but also wants a gui too. No MSI found for any gui so wonder if any of you can shed some light on a workaround? I wonder if its just a case of dropping a few files into a few folders (wishful thinking I know) or does anyone know of an msi somewhere? Only thing I wont be doing is running a script when a user logs on.

 

Thanks

Does your teacher mean IDLE?

 

Its the development environment included in the base install.

^ Yup That's all I deploy - The base install & IDLE comes with it.

If you something a bit more then look at netbeans with python additions. Gives the added bonus of allowing other languages as well should you need.

Thanks. IDLE is what I wanted. We have 8.1 here so was just pointing a start tile at the .exe where IDLE link seems to sit in the old start menu folder. Found it now and on the case.

Do they need anything more than IDLE to be able to teach this syllabus? I've told ours to use IDLE but they seem to want to use another 3rd part GUI for some unknown reason :/

 

EDIT: from teacher "they need to be able to create GUIs for the program they're writing, whereas Idle just lets them write code"

Something like this? wxGlade: a GUI builder for wxWidgets/wxPython

Tried that, it doesn't support the version of Python that we are using (3.3.5) struggling to find one that does..
