Hi there,

    Should be feasible. Theres a Gtk port for windows. So youre better off
using pygtk. I dont know about wxpython and what libraries it uses and
whether it will be possible to bring up gui interfaces in windows.

Anyway, its a BIG project though, atleast if I'm involved :-)

Regards,
Imran
