+ C++ library that lets developers create applications for Windows, OS X, Linux
+ and UNIX on 32-bit and 64-bit architectures as well as several mobile
+ platforms including Windows Mobile, iPhone SDK and embedded GTK+. It has
+ popular language bindings for Python, Perl, Ruby and many other languages.
+
+ Unlike other cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets gives its applications a truly
+ native look and feel because it uses the platform's native API rather than
+ emulating the GUI. It's also extensive, free, open-source and mature.
+
+ This package contains the python bindings."
