I've tried your code and the file dialogs are native, but every other widget is grey and very square. Maybe the windows version of tkinter is going for a Win98 native look. In that case they are doing it just right. I don't mind if it's ugly as long as it's usable, but beautiful is better than ugly, they say :) Well, ttk is only included on Python 3.0. On 2.6 is a separate donwload and hence another dependency. Changing the subject a little, it's possible that the editor requires or can benefit from some custom widgets. Have you got any experience creating one using Tkinter? I've done it with pygtk and it's quite easy, but you have to become familiar with some internals. Maybe we should start a pros and cons list for choosing a gui library for the editor. Some interesting positive points, ordered most important to least important from my pov, would be: - Availability on the more popular platforms: Linux, Win, OS X - Support for OpenGL drawing - Easy instalation (or no instalation at all, like Tkinter) - Easy to extend (custom widgets) - Native looking (probably better than looking good but inconsistent) - Developer experience (it's better to start using something that the available devs are familiar with than start learning something completely new) It's just a starting point. Maybe a wiki page would be nicer for creating such a list.
