Fair enough! Although whether or not we want to remove Tkinter i think it would be a good idea to get some feedback. But alas i am tired of fighting with you guys about it. So, since we are *keeping* Tkinter i want some suggestions for improvement. And don't go telling me that nothing needs fixing, because i have documented time and again the problems in Tkinter and IDLE. I have already made patches/fixes for some of them but somehow i fear the *in crowd* will never accept my changes just from pure spite. So let me hear of ANY improvements and/or suggestions for Tkinter/IDLE docs, code, or whatever. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
