http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/entry.htm
=> methods => "get -- Get the current contents of the entry field."

or in other words:

e = Entry(...)
print "current value =>", e.get()

or you can use a StringVar.  for radiobuttons and checkbuttons,
using a Tkinter variable (StringVar or IntVar) is the best way.  see
code samples on:
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/checkbutton.htm
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/radiobutton.htm

btw, a new version of the tkinter introduction is in the works. watch

for details.
