Yes, Horst, I didn't pay much attention to screen resolution for this
first-pass coding. I used the Helvetica font because it's supposed to be
supported in all Tkinter implementations -- and because my favorite tennis
player is Swiss :-).

If more controls are to be added, I think I'll need to change to a
multiple-page control panel: Colors, Sizes, Actions, etc. I'd be interested
in getting advice on what graphical widget(s) to use. Is it wise
(dependable, portable, etc.) to use the "Pmw" widgets described in the John
Grayson "Python and Tkinter Programming" book? Pmw's "Notebook" widget would
be an obvious candidate.

I haven't been able to coax any response from Gregor. :-(

Thanks,
John
