I am also a Python beginner thinking about what GUI toolkit to use, and

If you install the QT theme for GTK it all starts to look a lot nicer

It seems to depend on the widget type, and on what you call native... For
example, tk menus are definitely the native ones; tk scrollbars are th

The latter: there is a tiny C layer allo
Upon closer look, the walkthrough did say:

Change that so it says:

Save the code.

So, it works.

One other thing I'm wondering: how exactly does Tkinter work? Is the
whole Tk toolkit bound up as library of low-level C code, or does
Tkinter sit on top of a Tcl interpreter?
If the latter, that might explain why it is frustratingly slow on
Cygwin... since Cygwin is not very good at starting up

That's right, I'm saying the GUIs *produced* by PythonCard look like
those produced by LabView. Believe me, if the Python
