PhpWikiGui

While fooling around with Tkinter and xmlrpclib in Python, I decided to try out the experimental XML-RPC Interface in the development version of PhpWiki:

from Tkinter import *
from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy

class wikiClient:
	def __init__(self):
		self.proxy = ServerProxy("http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/demo/RPC2.php")
		self.initUi()
	def initUi(self):
		"""Lay out the GUI for the application."""
		self.root = Tk()
		#Create a left-hand frame for the listbox
		self.lFrame = Frame(self.root)
		#Create a right-hand frame for the text widget
		self.rFrame = Frame(self.root)
		#Create the label for the listbox
		self.listBoxLabel = Label(self.lFrame,text="Available Pages:")
		#Create the listbox
		self.listBox = Listbox(self.lFrame,selectmode=SINGLE, height=30)
		#populate the listbox
		for page in self.getPageNames():
			self.listBox.insert(END, page)
		#Create the 'Go' button
		self.goButton = Button(self.lFrame, text="Go!", command=self.getPageText)
		#Create the label for the text widget
		self.textLabel = Label(self.rFrame, text="Contents of the page you selected:")
		#Create the text widget
		self.text = Text(self.rFrame)
		#Pack widgets
		self.lFrame.pack(side="left",fill=BOTH)
		self.rFrame.pack(side="right",expand=1)
		self.listBoxLabel.pack(side="top", pady = 3)
		self.listBox.pack(side="top",padx=3, pady=3)
		self.goButton.pack(side="top", pady=3)
		self.textLabel.pack(side="top", pady = 3)
		self.text.pack(side="top", padx=3, pady=3, fill=BOTH)
		
	def getPageNames(self):
		"""Connect to the server and get a list of all page names"""
		pageList = self.proxy.wiki.getAllPages()
		pageList.sort()
		return pageList
	def getPageText(self):
		"""Determine which item in the list is selected, and retrieve
		that page's raw Wiki text."""
		selectedIndex = self.listBox.curselection()0
		#Get the corresponding value:
		selectedPage = self.listBox.get(selectedIndex)
		#Get the contents of the page:
		pageContents = self.proxy.wiki.getPage(selectedPage)
		#Clear the text widget:
		self.text.delete(1.0, END)
		#Put the page name in the textbox
		self.text.insert(1.0, pageContents.data)
app = wikiClient()
app.root.mainloop()

It looks like this in Windows98:
