[wxPython-users] OT - Python/Databases/wxPython - Thanks :-D

[Danny Shevitz]

very cool. Thanks for describing that to me. Of all of it, the coolest part 
is probably the
LabelBook. I didn't know such a thing existed. Are the tabs on the right 
used to switch
pages, or is it the pushpin? I can't tell from the screenshots. I also 
don't see it in any demo.
Where is LabelBook defined, available...

thanks,
Danny
