Those are all small code examples you find in the Python manual! They 
are not a working program in itself and should not be taken so. I just 
state my point about an ugly API with them.

Yesterday. In fact, I could find no mention at all of layout managers 
others than those working with anchors. Anchors are soooo old school 
nowadays :)

Honestly, I can't stand using anchors or the Packer anymore. The systems 
used in wx, Qt are much better. Use them once and you cannot live 
without them anymore.
