Hi I, too, am a python newbie and have wrestled with GUI programming. I think I am winning, but its been a struggle.
>From what I have gleaned, there are three and a half options. The half is easygui - see http://www.ferg.org/easygui - which allows you to place pop up dialogues in procedural code. Apart from that there's Tkinter, PyGtk and wxPython. I never tried wxPython as it wasn't installed on my system. I struggled with PyGtk (http://www.pygtk.org/) and eventually gave up - somehow I could never get to work any code which wasn't an exact copy of the tutorial. Which leaves Tkinter, and here, with the help of Frederik Lundh's tutorial and manual (http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/) , I have been able to get results. Not perfect - if you search you'll find a number of my posts on this newsgroup when I was stuck, and the manual is incomplete (why - given that Tkinter is the de facto standard?). But for me at least Tkinter provided a way forwards. Good Luck Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
