This is a big mistake. It's unfortunate that there is not yet a
"complete" distibution of Python, but the reality is that while there is
a lot distibutied with the standard library, you are limiting yourself A
LOT if you only use standard modules. The time it takes you to learn to
distribute the extra modules your code needs along with the code will be
far less time that it takes you to re-create all the usefull modules you
are rejecting (mxTools, PIL, wxPython, PyQT, etc. etc.)

Give PyQT and/or wxPython a try. They are worth it!!
