Re: [Tutor] tkinter tutorials

2006-10-14 Thread Alan Gauld
 Danny, Python and Tkinter Programming is still in its first
 edition, which came out in 2000. Python has changed a lot since 
 then.
 Hasn't Tkinter? Is the book still usable by a Tkinter beginner?

Tkinter has not changed hardly at all.
The only shame about the book is that it strongly features the Python
MegaWidgets add-on library whereas it was Tix that was adoptted
in the standard library, and there is no coverage of Tix at all.
(Time for a second edition Manning?)

However the book is not really a beginners book in Tkinter, you
should do Fred Lundh's intro tutorial first, but it is good on more
advanced topics and as a reference book.

Yuk, a double negative, sorry. 
That should of course say:

Tkinter has hardly changed at all.

Hopefully that was obvious from my subsequent comments!

John Grayson's Python and Tkinter Programming is an excellent book on 
learning the Tkinter toolkit:

You might also find the tutorial material on:
