He uses it because Pmw does a lot of heavy lifting for you when designing Tkinter apps. Pmw adds things like widgets pre-populated with scrollbars and labels and automatic widget/label alignment. I use Pmw for all but the most trivial Tkinter applications. That said, there is nothing in Pmw that you couldn't implement yourself in plain Tkinter, it's just already been done for you. Check out the Pmw site for lots of examples and details. Also, if you do install the module, it comes with a demo directory. Run all.py to see Pmw in action. http://pmw.sourceforge.net > If I want to run his examples, where do I put the > lib he includes? Same folder as the example? Library modules (like Pmw) generally belong in site-packages (/usr/lib/ python2.x/site-packages in most unixes... not sure about windows).
