I wrote a script that creates a gui using pygtk. The
gui consists of a vertical scrollbar and two buttons.
The user picks a number (degrees Fahrenheit) with the
scrollbar and then clicks the convert button. A
functions converts the number to its equivalent in
degrees Celsius and prints a response to the screen.
The quit buttons ends the script. Tell me what you
think!
