Hello Monks,

I would like to develop a program that spawns a window/tool bar with buttons with programmable text that when clicked prints the programmed text at the cursor. In most programs there are options to print text repeatedly, i.e. macros, but I would like to design one program that can print text in any application from Spread Sheets to Web Browsers

Ideally, the application will be able to run on both Linux and winblows, but winblows is a secondary goal. The main focus will be to make it operate on a Linux platform

I really need some assistance planning the design of the application. For instance: Wx is a very popular module for windows management, but there is also Tk, Tkx and Gtk2. I'm really not sure where to start in planning and designing the structure of the application. Can any one point me in the right direction please?

Thanks, in advance.
