In summary, information about Tkinter is scattered about in various places:)--at least my take on it.
Here are two links to get you started: http://www.astro.washington.edu/users/rowen/TkinterSummary.html This page has quite a few links to resources on Tkinter: http://wiki.python.org/moin/TkInter There is a complete book on the subject by Grayson, that is from 2000. All the examples were online the last time I checked ( some years ago). Also there are used book copies for about $60 US that can be found from the wiki.python.org link. I am planning to get back into Tkinter soon. I have developed a time-series plotting package but have not touched it in almost two years:( Thus I have to re-learn a few things because I wasn't an expert when I had to move to other things--things that earned me billable hours! One final observation: I find GUI programming to be a challenge but a lot of fun. However, it takes time, at least for me, to work out many of the details. However, matplotlib is an excellent tool to put at the heart of anything used to plot technical data. Almost all of my software development from 1963 on has been in Fortran. Still working on getting my "mind wrapped" around object-oriented software and Python:) Python is my platform of choice for any GUI development that I do. I find it a fantastic language!!
