Tailor
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
A Python native, OS native GUI toolkit.
|
|
|
|
Quickstart
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
In your virtualenv, install Tailor, and then run it::
|
|
|
|
$ pip install tailor
|
|
$ tailor
|
|
|
|
This will pop up a GUI window.
|
|
|
|
Problems under Ubuntu
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu's packaging of Python omits the ``idlelib`` library from it's base
|
|
packge. If you're using Python 2.7 on Ubuntu 13.04, you can install
|
|
``idlelib`` by running::
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install idle-python2.7
|
|
|
|
For other versions of Python and Ubuntu, you'll need to adjust this as
|
|
appropriate.
|
|
|
|
Problems under Windows
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
If you're running Tailor in a virtualenv, you'll need to set an
|
|
environment variable so that Tailor can find the TCL graphics library::
|
|
|
|
$ set TCL_LIBRARY=c:\Python27\tcl\tcl8.5
|
|
|
|
You'll need to adjust the exact path to reflect your local Python install.
|
|
You may find it helpful to put this line in the ``activate.bat`` script
|
|
for your virtual environment so that it is automatically set whenever the
|
|
virtualenv is activated.
