I wonder how he learned about Tk. To be quite frank, I've not found tkinter to be particularly intuitive, and I've been doing GUI programming since the early 90s (with a wide variety of toolkits). Mind, that's not necessarily an indictment of tkinter per se; MOST windowing toolkits take a bit of mastering. But my general estimate is that it takes roughly as long to learn a GUI toolkit as to learn a language, and takes comparable effort. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
