wxPython - processes

[ccahoon]

In wxPython, I want to be able to start downloading a file and have the
window doing such remain interactive, so that the user can cancel
downloading the next file. Also, if there is a way to cancel a
downloading process, what is it?

I am using urllib.urlretrieve. Thanks for any help, in advance.

Look into 'threading' module. You want to do downloading in a separate
thread, which you'd control from the main (GUI) thread. There is a
threading example in wxPython demo.
