Python bindings for BWToolkit

April 28, 2009

Interface Builder and Cocoa lack a lot these juicy controls that we see in applications such as iTunes or Mail.  This (I guess) drove Brandon Walkin to create BWToolkit.  The great thing about it, except for the excellent controls, is that it comes with a Interface Builder plugin.

In my quest to make my Python hacking under OS X easier I crafted some bindings for the framework that simply loads the bundle.  This is enough to get basic functionality working.

You can get the stuff from github. Please feel free to use as you like, provided that you send me patches if you find anything wrong or not working. Just run “python setup.py install” and you should be able to do “import BWToolkitFramework” in your main.py file.
