Azrael,

> Isn't it maybe time to throw out TK once and for all? Python is missing one of the most important aspects of todays IT industry. GUI development native library (I mean a serious one).

Check out enhancements to Tk like Ttk included in Python 2.7 and 3.1 and
above.
http://www.tkdocs.com/tutorial/styles.html

Tk/Ttk is a much lighter weight GUI than wxPython and allows for
commercial quality, cross-platform GUI development.
