I need to write a desktop application in python that would take a tcpdump on the users' desktop and HTTP POST the dump to a server. Has anyone used Dabo before? Any other suggestion for Desktop Client Frameworks in Python?
I've used wxPython for a very large game editor. It is (or at least was a few years ago) the most complete desktop API for python. It's very easy to use and the examples make it easy to knock together a prototype VERY quickly that can be extended to a full application.
There are some issues on the OSX port though which tends to lag behind the Linux/Windows version on bug fixes (not by design but due to having fewer developers devoted to OSX).
I've found wxPython pretty straight forward - I understand Dabo is based on wxPython but haven't used it myself. I suspect it will be even more straight forward?
