Hi you all,

Some of you may have used Pyvon ( a POV-RAY editor for Linux) sometime ago.
Due to lack of time (and others plans in life), I more or less dropped 
the development of Pyvon.

2 months ago, I restarted to write it from scratch, this time using a 
more elaborate wrapper : wxPython (-> hence the name :).

It is now completely useable (just a few things are still disabled)


It makes extensive use of Scintilla -> WxPvyon feature syntax 
highlighting and word completion.

WxPyvon has more or less the same layout as Pyvon plus a couple of nice 
features.
- On Kde render window can be kept on top.
(Does anyone know how to launch an app on top on gnome, windowmaker,...)
- Magnify or unmagnify the current window



It requires :
python (I use version 2.4)
wxpython 2.5.3

try to install psyco (but it should work without it)


How to run it :
Once you have unpacked it just cd to the directory and type python b60.py


A few things still need some work :
insert does not work
directives still need some work
add a Todo list

As always, comments, found bugs, suggestions ... are welcome


I hope you will enjoy it

Fabien
