I actually like how the Tk widgets look. I've done some semi-industrial
applications with tkinter and they have a nice factory-floor vibe.
I generally just use pdb for debugging. The feature I miss most is the
ability to trap to the debugger if the program throws an unhandled
exception. I think some other Python debuggers do support that. I've
found it invaluable in other languages.
