fwiw, in an earlier paragraph, he quoted my Tkinter introduction
document.  looks like what he really said is "don't trust my advice"

an overview of the Tkinter classes can be found here:
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/tkinter-classes.htm

the wm_withdraw method is described here, together with other
Tk/Toplevel methods:
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/toplevel-window-methods.htm

for a general intro to Python's class concept, and how method
inheritance works, see your favourite Python book.
