[Tutor] Adding a GUI

Sure thing:-) Sorry I could not actually solve it! I am still have a hard time getting my mind around the line.strip(), then printing based on a condition loop. Not sure why...


The excerpt from Lutz' book was very helpful, thanks. One issue I still have: I do not really want to lose the ability to run the script from the CLI. This seems relatively common too, having the same script with a command line and a graphical version. Lutz seems to present the case of pure conversion, where a script was first CLI only, and will end up being GUI only, which I was hoping to avoid...

I didn't mean to speak badly of Tkinter, I know it is the most ubiquitous, and can work quite well. I have used it before, and it is relatively easy to use. The main issue I have with it is just that it, well, looks bad! The windows and frames do not resemble native windows per OS, which is an advantage of wxPython.

I will check out his book more, though, 300 pages on GUI programming would be helpful!

Thanks,
Sam
