Tkinter and printf in C ...

[Steve Holden]

Chyr-Pyng:

That's why my first example was over-complicated. I was displaying email
messages parsed from a file after selection from a list item. All that code
was highly specific to my program, and shouldn't be expected to make much
sense to you. It's the insert() method of the Text and scrolledText objects
I ws trying to pint you at!

regards
 Steve
