There is a book about writing cross-platform Python applications using
wxWindows as the GUI toolkit. I'd imagine that a large portion of the
advice given in there would be relevant. As I understand it, provided
that you use built-in libraries you should be pretty safe in terms of
portability, and if you use os.* objects to do things like file
creation and destruction and whatnot, all the platforms specific
things should be abstracted away.
Don't consider me an authoritative source on this. I'm saying this
based on things I've read and code I've examined. I haven't _actually_
written any cross-platform Python scripts, though I have no reason to
believe the stuff I have written wouldn't work on other platforms...
