I have now installed python 2.2.1 and have tried your program, a few 
comments:

I got as far as pressing the render button before it realised that 
  it was pointing at a pov executable that didn't exist, it may be 
  an idea to check this when you open pyvon and allert the user if
  the executable doesn't exist, you could also do this for 
  directories listed in pyvon.ini too. 

On the first run of the program there was a command line box visible
  at the bottom of the screen, along with some other useful information,
  on subsequent invocations this line does not appear. 

I'd really like to be able to change those editr colours via some menu 
  options, I hate working on a white background. 

I'd say your program is working well at this stage, and would encourage 
you to keep up the good work, this will be a very useful tool for people
who are new to Linux.  I'll be watching further developments with 
interest, but you'll never get me to use anything other than emacs for 
my own work in POV-Ray.
