hello,
Just my 2 farthings worth...
Although Python and Tkinter is a good book it was written at the time of
Python 1.5 (so there may be some transformation that needs to be done
on some of the examples) you may want to take a look at Python in
a Nutshell by A. Martelli published by O'Reilly. It has a section on
Tkinter and many other things that you may find useful.
ah

Thanks, in terms of GUI programming I am leaning towards Qt, since I can
use this stuff in C++ as well. There is also a program called Qt
designer that makes GUI design a drag and drop process.
