Quick and dirty Text widget with two attached scrollbars. There probably
are cleaner and better ways to do the job, but this may help.

from Tkinter import *

def main():
	root = Tk()

	f = Frame(root)
	text = Text(f, width=40, height=10, setgrid='True', wrap='none')

	xscroll = Scrollbar(f, orient=HORIZONTAL, command=text.xview)
	yscroll = Scrollbar(f, orient=VERTICAL, command=text.yview)
	xscroll.pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=X)
	yscroll.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
	text['xscrollcommand'] = xscroll.set
	text['yscrollcommand'] = yscroll.set

	text.pack(side=LEFT, fill=BOTH, expand='True')
	f.pack(side=TOP, fill=BOTH, expand='True')

	root.mainloop()

if __name__ == '__main__' :
	main()
