Hello,
I am trying to write a very simple py-opengl program pair causing a
variable in each program to be changed by the other. I am able to open
a command window in which I manually assign a value to the variable, but
I cannot seem to implement the udp/ip information I wish to send into a

Try ID's higher then 1 ... low ID's are usually taken by
wxWidgets. To be safe simply create them with wx.ID_ANY (from the top
of my head) and after that:
self.box1.Bind(wx.EVT_LISTBOX, self.b1func,id=self.box1.GetId())
Which is a bit more dynamic anyway and saves you some constants.

I got that point, what I want is how the dimensions of the canvas would be

Do I need a scrollbar for that??

You provide the size of the canvas when you create
it normally. But you can use at least 2 approaches.
Is this something I can do using just python and libraries? I know I could
automate other utilities, but I'd like to write some kind of neat utility
myself that I could play with for more experience.
Goal:
