Neither I like it so much, but maybe you have to think about it from the point of view of ease of use, more than beauty itself (even if I agree a little with you :)). really, it doesn't look that bad ;) And btw, you said you didn't like tcl as well :D > moreover, the main reason why we'd avoid python (if everyone agrees with > me), is that we're tcl/tk programmers here.. learning a new language, no > thanks...
