I don't want to write "applications" now, at first I want to learn and
maybe write some tiny utilities for myself and play around.

Hm, again, the three alternatives:
Porbable is not the question now.

Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

1)  Tkinter: It is in startup time pretty good, and well documented ,
stable and straightforward.

2) wxPython is fast (after starting) and has many sophisticated
widgets.

3) PyQt: It is "professional" and powerful and is praised from the
most people here in this newsgroup.
