	And you decided to throw in a GUI framework at the same time...

	I've only written one program using Tkinter (and I stuck the old PMW
library on top of that) -- it was quite horrid of a program. I have used
the file-requester in a few others though, but that is a stand-alone
widget/dialog.

	My only other GUI experience is a rudimentary "Jeopardy" framework
(called Jeparody -- did not include timers and player buttons) done on a
whim for an investment mailing list, using VB6... And a significant
application in which I emulated the display features of a Ramtek 9300
graphics engine using DECWindows with Graphical Kernel System on top (and
no "GUI Builder" -- just a hand-written GUI description file).

	I'd recommend going through the Python Tutorial, study the standard
types in the Library manual, and maybe skim through the Python Reference...
THEN maybe consider a GUI...
