Allan,

   You'll see a lot of recommendations because there are many options
availalble to you. When I started with python and wxpython I looked at
several GUI tools but quickly reverted to emacs. Writing the wxpython code
by hand has taught me a lot more about how and why it works as it does, and
it gives me much greater flexibility in both design and implementation.

   There are many available options just because each of us prefers working
in a certain way different from many others, and we want different abilities
in our tools. So, take a look at what's available (let's see ... there's
SPE, Boa, wxGlade, and probably several others) in the GUI field, or use
your favorite text editor and just do it (as they say on the Nike campus).
