The other real advantage of Tix is that the core to a number of the
most important widgets is written in C, which is a huge speed
difference for things  like heirachical lists (trees). Any wrapped
Tk solution for this is likely to be painfully slow for large lists.

Do you have Python wrappers for Tktable and Tkhtml?  I've been
begging for these for ages!

If so, would you like to contribute them to the contrib part of
tix.souceforge.net so people can find them easily? I'd welcome that.
I've been working on  a suite of development applications that run
with Tk/Tcl or Python using Tix: http://tix.sourceforge.net/Tixapps/

Many thanks,
