ANNOUNCE: wxPython 2.4.2.4

[Robin Dunn]

Announcing
----------

I'm pleased to announce the 2.4.2.4 release of wxPython, now available
for download at http://wxpython.org/download.php or
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10718&release_id=166530


What is wxPython?
-----------------

wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows
Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional
graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a
Python extension module that wraps the popular wxWindows cross platform
GUI library, which is written in C++.

wxPython is a cross-platform toolkit. This means that the same program
will usually run on multiple platforms without modifications. Currently
supported platforms are 32-bit Microsoft Windows, most Linux or other
Unix-like systems, and Macintosh OS X.



Changes in 2.4.2.4
------------------

This version is mostly a bug-fix release, but there are also a few new
features:

* Use wxSTC in the demo for displaying the soucre code of the
samples.

* Added wxPython.lib.newevent from Miki Tebeka. Its usage is
demonstrated in the Threads sample in the demo.

* Updates to wxMaskedEditCtrl.

* Added wxMaskedNumCtrl.

* Added Chris Barker's FloatCanvas.
