New Instance for Pmw.Notebook()?

[Jake Gren]

Hmm. Ok, my class knowledge is limited (I'm working on it...), but I have to
call a class object, right? Each time a class is called, it generates and
returnsa new instance object. This is where I grind to a halt... I can
follow the simple class examples in "Learning Python," but I'm not sure how
to create a class for the "thing" I want to do below. Can you assist or
suggest a book or document? From what you mention below it doesn't seem like
a difficult task, but I'm lost... Thanks!
