Well at least with troff you can do arbitrarily complex graphics etc (albeit with great difficulty using pic!) but in HTML you are much more limited and often have to resort to generating bitmaps and including them as images in an html document. Being able to print a GDI mirror is much better but sadly many (most?) GUI tookits don't offer that in a cross platform kind of way - wxWidgets is one of the few that seems to work fairly painlessly. And if you need good graphical printing wxWidgets is probably the way to go. But if you only need a GUI to control a program's operations (as I do) then Tkinter is fine. -- Steve Willoughby | Using billion-dollar satellites st...@alchemy.com | to hunt for Tupperware.
