Well, Alan, have you ever used HyperCard?

PythonCard is not just "yet another GUI builder", it is environment. It is
higher level than Tkinter, etc.

Your opinion on "GUI builders" is probably due to the fact that most of
them are lame. While we want PythonCard to be of higher value.
And TRULY plus productivity, not minus.

And "occasional users" are those who come to Python from
successful encounter with superb GUI builder.

So, please, do not underestimate PythonCard potential!

Sincerely yours, Roman Suzi
