Tkinter vs. wxPython

[Gabe Newcomb]

Thanks to all who've responded. I see now that this has been brought up
a number of times before (thank you Google Groups) and I'll be better
about checking on that next time.

Thanks all

Gabe

Do you mean more examples than the massive demo program for wxPython?
I don't think I've found almost anything not covered by something in
that
code yet.

I switched to wxPython for reasons which were, to me, compelling, but
they simply related to my failure to get acceptable looking and
performing
results under Tkinter.  Note I said it was my failure, not Tkinter's...
