python + gtk3 on windows?


I'm trying to port a small app to windows (I made it for ubuntu initally), it's written on python + gtk3... I know that gtk3 is hard to make it work on windows (even on c++), but is it possible to make it work on Windows with Python?

I do not want to re-write it on another toolkit, and if so, it will probably be wxWidgets, because I'm using an embedded terminal on it (Vte.Terminal()), that IIRC is part of gtk3 too.

If it's not possible, is there a way to make a terminal widget on wxPython in Windows?


Solution

  • Id doesn't look like you can use gtk3 on windows quite yet, although it looks like development for such is very active at this point link. You may also want to check out this post because it may help with your gtk3 question. In response to your question on whether you can create a terminal in wxPython, you'll want to look up this project and check out this stack overflow question. Also, a very similar question to what yours sounds like was asked here. Please let me know if that doesn't help!
