Hi All
    thanks for the comments and confirmation that this is not really possible 
in a
Tkinter environment.

I had thought of using ncurses but was shying clear of learning about another 
set
of widgets etc. just now. The output of the simulator is simple enough that it
could just accept simple keystrokes for control, and every second or so there 
will
be an output string saying what is happening - a sort of concatenation of the
various output widgets in the Tkinter-based version.

I have hoped to keep this text view so similar to the Tkinter one that it was
using the same mechanisms (after(), Tk keyevents etc). Instead I think I will
just write a simple mainloop() which is 'inspired by' Tkinter. I could then
look at adding ncurses as a third alternative.

    Thanks again
    J^n
