to the OP, yes you can definitely mix the manager provided
you keep to one per container. I typically use pack to pack a set
of frames into my top level app. But within each of the subframes
I then use grid/pack as suits my needs, often (usually?) a mx of
both in a single app.

the very least a warning).
The objective should be to habd control back to the
event loop as fast as possible so you can respond
to the next event - which might, after all, be a cancel
operation!

Take a look at the IDLE source - it is all in Python/Tkinter
and available in the standard distribution.
It seems to handle syntax highlighting OK...

The first line is the print statement in the function.
The second line is the return value of the function.

Any pointers appreciated. And if anyone knows a decent book or
web site for Python Tix that would also be much appreciated.
I can get most things to work in Tix but the Grid has me beat
so far.

I have an app with a tabbed notebook. I want to
only enable one of the main menus when the appropriate
tab is selected. When the tab is deselected I want
to disable the menu again.
I can't see any obvious properties in the Menu
object. I can mess around with flags in the event
handlers and change

I've observed a strange difference in the behaviour of
one of my event handlers, I'm wondering if anyone knows
the explanation.
I have a form with a list box and a set of buttons.
When you highlight a list item you can press the
Edit button and it calls evEdit() which opens an
edit dialog in the

The parent is the main Tk window.
