PAGE-2.2c - A Python Automatic GUI Generator

What is PAGE?
-----------
PAGE is an automatic GUI generator which bears a resemblance to
Visual Basic. It allows one to easily create GUI window containing a
selection of Tk and Tix widgets and bind actions associated with
events in those widgets with a straight-forward, visual paradigm.
It is a Tcl/Tk/Tix program that generates a Python module that
realizes the desired GUI. Further, it supports rework in that one can
generate a Python GUI module, debug it in the Python space, and yet be
able to return to the Tcl/Tk realm to modify or update the appearance
of the GUI or change the bindings on the widgets.
There is a large user's guide and several useful examples.

Dan,

Does the GPL extend to the app's that have GUI's created with PAGE, or are
they in the clear?

thx

PAGE puts no restrictions on the generated GUI. You will be governed by the
licenses for Tix and Tcl/Tk. They both are governed by the BSD License;
you should have no problems.

As long as you don't reuse (or derive) the PAGE code, I think there is
no obligation to use GPL for your code.

As with gcc, a source code compiled with gcc need not to be GPL.
