Glade is pretty easy to use, especially for a simple front end, if you already know python, then the amount of GTK you'd have to learn would be very minimal (5-15 minute crash course in it should suffice.) build your GUI in Glade, link the python code to the xml file, and the go back to coding non-gui stuff in no time. The Glade utility is free software so there's no expense (unless you get charged by the byte on your downloads.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
