Well, I am about to sign up for the Steve Holden O'Reilly classes to 
learn Python and I know doing something in Tkinter is part of that. I 
also have the old Grayson book (just wish Pmw wasn't in there so much). 
So this would be a good follow on to the class to keep me learning 
Python at a steady pace.  :-)
