Create examples/ root dir - simplify and unify examples to work on all platforms

[cztomczak]

Old examples

Currently examples are spread across multiple directories like "windows/binaries_32bit/" (and 64bit/), "linux/binaries_32bit" (and 64bit/), "mac/binaries_64bit". There are also three wx.chromectrl examples in "wx-subpackage/examples/".

All these examples should go to a single "examples/" directory in repo root directory with subdirectories named after each third party library:

• wxPython/
• PyQt/
• PySide/
• PyGTK/
• PyWin32/
• Kivy/
• Panda3D/

New examples

• hello_world.py - most basic example in a few lines of code that doesn't depend on 3rd party GUI framework
• tutorial.py - along with Tutorial.md yet to be created

Examples for python packagers

This directory should also include examples of integrating python packagers:

• py2exe/
• pyinstaller/
• cx_Freeze/
• py2app/

Other examples

Other examples would include breakpad crash reporting and chromedriver tool for automated testing:

• breakpad/
• ChromeDriver/

wxPython/ directory

Each examples directory should contain a "README.md" stating what example exactly does and which platforms it supports. The goal is for every example to run on all platforms, but this will take time. Example contents of the "wxPython/" examples directory:

• README.md
• simple.py - a simple example that loads google.com
• advanced.py - current advanced example wxpython.py
• advanced.html
• advanced_handlers.py - client handlers from the advanced.py example should go to a separate file, try to seperate ClientHandler class into multiple classes (DisplayHandler, KeyboardHandler, etc)
• advanced_jsbindings.py - the JavascriptExternal class with bindings
• webresponse.py - reading and modifying web response wxpython-response.py
• chromectrl1.py - wx.chromectrl sample1.py
• chromectrl2.py - .. sample2.py
• chromectrl3.py - .. sample3.py

Helper functions

Make helper functions (GetApplicationPath and ExceptHook) part of the cefpython package and import them using import * from cefpython.helpers. In GetApplicationPath get rid of this line elif "__file__" in globals(): and only detect directory using getcwd() and "frozen".

Added hello_world.py example in commit 6f0d9b3.

[cztomczak]

Added qt.py example (#234).
Added tkinter_.py example (#255).
Added gtk3.py example (#253).
Added gtk2.py example (#261).
To do: Refactory kivy_.py example and move it to examples/ (#285).

With the new v56 release for Mac this task is finally complete. Examples from the examples/ directory do run on all platforms.
