[python-win32] Win32 GUI for beginners.

[RayS]

I was in a similar place about 12 years ago, and settled on wx 
http://wiki.wxpython.org/How%20to%20Learn%20wxPython and 
BoaConstructor http://sourceforge.net/projects/boa-constructor/, 
which has served well since.
A good book I'd bought is now online 
http://eduunix.ccut.edu.cn/index2/pdf/Manning.Publications.wxPython.in.Action.Mar.2006.pdf

Qt also has a nice widget set and examples etc, but is not LGPL - a 
factor for me.
