Hi all, I've just started working with Python and Tkinter.

One of the things I think I've noted is that Button commands do not pass 
parameters.

Is there a way around this?

And is there a better way to code the following:

I've written a small application that puts a Label in row 0 of a Frame and puts 
26 buttons labeled A - Z in the second row.

When the user clicks on a button, the associated letter is displayed in the 
label.

Code follows:


# Creates a label in row 0
# Creates 26 buttons A - Z in row 2
# Clicking a button changes the displayed label
from Tkinter import *

class Application(Frame):
    def __init__(self,master=None):
        Frame.__init__(self, master)
        self.grid()

        self.tv = StringVar()
        self.tv.set("?")

        self.lText = Label(master, textvariable = self.tv)
        self.lText.grid(row = 0, columnspan = 26)


        butA = Button(master, text= 'A', command = self.choseA).grid(row = 2, 
column = 0 )

        butB = Button(master, text= 'B', command = self.choseB).grid(row = 2, 
column = 1 )

        butC = Button(master, text= 'C', command = self.choseC).grid(row = 2, 
column = 2 )

        butD = Button(master, text= 'D', command = self.choseD).grid(row = 2, 
column = 3 )

        butE = Button(master, text= 'E', command = self.choseE).grid(row = 2, 
column = 4 )

        butF = Button(master, text= 'F', command = self.choseF).grid(row = 2, 
column = 5 )

        butG = Button(master, text= 'G', command = self.choseG).grid(row = 2, 
column = 6 )

        butH = Button(master, text= 'H', command = self.choseH).grid(row = 2, 
column = 7 )

        butI = Button(master, text= 'I', command = self.choseI).grid(row = 2, 
column = 8 )

        butJ = Button(master, text= 'J', command = self.choseJ).grid(row = 2, 
column = 9 )

        butK = Button(master, text= 'K', command = self.choseK).grid(row = 2, 
column = 10 )

        butL = Button(master, text= 'L', command = self.choseL).grid(row = 2, 
column = 11 )

        butM = Button(master, text= 'M', command = self.choseM).grid(row = 2, 
column = 12 )

        butN = Button(master, text= 'N', command = self.choseN).grid(row = 2, 
column = 13 )

        butO = Button(master, text= 'O', command = self.choseO).grid(row = 2, 
column = 14 )

        butP = Button(master, text= 'P', command = self.choseP).grid(row = 2, 
column = 15 )

        butQ = Button(master, text= 'Q', command = self.choseQ).grid(row = 2, 
column = 16 )

        butR = Button(master, text= 'R', command = self.choseR).grid(row = 2, 
column = 17 )

        butS = Button(master, text= 'S', command = self.choseS).grid(row = 2, 
column = 18 )

        butT = Button(master, text= 'T', command = self.choseT).grid(row = 2, 
column = 19 )

        butU = Button(master, text= 'U', command = self.choseU).grid(row = 2, 
column = 20 )

        butV = Button(master, text= 'V', command = self.choseV).grid(row = 2, 
column = 21 )

        butW = Button(master, text= 'W', command = self.choseW).grid(row = 2, 
column = 22 )

        butX = Button(master, text= 'X', command = self.choseX).grid(row = 2, 
column = 23 )

        butY = Button(master, text= 'Y', command = self.choseY).grid(row = 2, 
column = 24 )

        butZ = Button(master, text= 'Z', command = self.choseZ).grid(row = 2, 
column = 25 )
