I just started with Tkinter and I thought this was the only difference. But I could be wrong of-course. ;-) > Deciding what versions of Python to support is not always a simple > decision.

In principle I want to work with 3, but not all libraries work with it. (That is also why I choose Tkinter, that works with both. wx only with 2.) Also, in the Netherlands mostly Python 2 is used (as far as I know), so it is good to have my code working with both from that perspective also. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
