Ok, sorry to throw perhaps unrelated stuff in here, but I want everyone to know what we have right now in the office. We started with an electric typewriter and file cabinets. We were given an old 386 with a 20 mb hard drive about 5 years ago, and we moved everything over to a very very old version of msworks on msdos 6. Depending on what we are given(for reasons best left alone, I won't explain why we can't actually COUNT on the actual buying of a new system), we will be left with this relic, or be given a 486. Maybe a old pentium 90 or so. I may try to convince the boss that I can write dos programs for the existing machine. If we get any kind of upgrade, I'm sure it will be able to run linux with X and a low overhead window manager. If that happened, I'd be able to use python and this "tk" thing you have talked about and make something that will work for him, am I correct? The other alternative is to install console mode linux on it and hope that the ncurses library can be used by python. The system could be as low as a 486 dx2 66 with maybe 16 megs of ram. Well, I just thought I'd give you people more info on the situation.
