If you just need a few dialogs that appear in a
predefined order, you might not even need an
event loop. Check out the Python22/Lib/lib-tk
directory, and have a look at the examples in
the end of these files:
  tkSimpleDialog.py
  tkMessageBox.py
  tkFileDialog.py

You can run these files as they are to get a demo.
As you see, they simply return a value like a normal
expression.

"Use the source, Luke!"

I don't think any of these plain dialogs use any
scrolled window though, but lets think about that
later! :)
