Lars napisaƂ(a): The only problem I've ever encountered was with updating Tk widgets from threads in a threaded app - it won't work.

I've used Tkinter quite extensively for various tools, but never for anything big. I believe it will work nicely for a data input type of application. I don't know if you'll experience significant "lag" when updating app-windows on old pentiums, but it shouldn't be a problem. Mind you, the machine
