Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm new to Linux but not to app
development. I come from a RealBasic on a Mac background.  I've
accepted that I need to learn a new language to develop for
Linux (since RB won't run on 64 bit distros and is a cloed
proprietary language) but I want to make sure I pick the right
one.  I've been looking at Python and was all set to go until I
read that PyGTK is becoming obsolete with the introduction of
GTK 3. Is this true? The Ubuntu developer website stills seems
to recommend it with Glade for the UI but I want to make sure
that I don't learn something that's on the way out!
share|improve this question since you want to learn something
new, you can have a look at wxPython and Pyside. I suggest
wxPython as it will have advantage if you switch to C++ one day
porting to wxWidgets is a breeze. Pyside is Python-for-QT thing
but I have no experience at all with it! Just an advice –
