wxPython是Python編程語(yǔ)言的一個(gè)GUI工具箱。他使得Python程序員能夠輕松的創(chuàng)建具有健壯、功能強(qiáng)大的圖形用戶界面的程序。它是Python語(yǔ)言對(duì)流行的wxWidgets跨平臺(tái)GUI工具庫(kù)的綁定。而wxWidgets是用C++語(yǔ)言寫(xiě)成的。

和Python語(yǔ)言與wxWidgetsGUI工具庫(kù)一樣，wxPython是開(kāi)源軟件。這意味著任何人都可以免費(fèi)地使用它并且可以查看和修改它的源代碼，或者貢獻(xiàn)補(bǔ)丁，增加功能。

wxPython是跨平臺(tái)的。這意味著同一個(gè)程序可以不經(jīng)修改地在多種平臺(tái)上運(yùn)行。現(xiàn)今支持的平臺(tái)有：32位微軟Windows操作系統(tǒng)、大多數(shù)Unix或類Unix系統(tǒng)、蘋(píng)果MacOS X。

下面使用wxpython編寫(xiě)一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的記事本程序，可以打開(kāi)本地文件，編輯，保存。

#!/usr/bin/python 
import wx 
def OnOpen(event): 
  """

  """ 
  dialog = wx.FileDialog(None,'Notepad',style = wx.OPEN) 
  if dialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK: 
    filename.SetValue(dialog.GetPath()) 
    file = open(dialog.GetPath()) 
    contents.SetValue(file.read()) 
    file.close() 
  dialog.Destroy()

bkg = wx.Panel(win) 
# Define a 'load' button and its label, 
# bind to an button event with a function 'load' 
loadButton = wx.Button(bkg, label='Open') 
loadButton.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, OnOpen) 
# Define a 'save' button and its label, 
# bind to an button event with a function 'save' 
saveButton = wx.Button(bkg, label='Save') 
saveButton.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, OnSave) 
# Define a textBox for filename. 
filename = wx.TextCtrl(bkg) 
# Define a textBox for file contents. 
contents = wx.TextCtrl(bkg, style=wx.TE_MULTILINE | wx.HSCROLL) 
# Use sizer to set relative position of the components. 
# Horizontal layout 
hbox = wx.BoxSizer() 
hbox.Add(filename, proportion=1, flag=wx.EXPAND) 
hbox.Add(loadButton, proportion=0, flag=wx.LEFT, border=5) 
hbox.Add(saveButton, proportion=0, flag=wx.LEFT, border=5)
