How easy is it to create graphical user interface with Python?

[IB]

Hello, David:

Actually, not yet. The fact that Tkinter is a Python standard GUI
makes me think that porting Tkinter app to Mac should not be a big
pain.

Probably they wouldn't. They have distinct Tkinter-ish flavor.
Currently I am happy even with this Tkinter-ish look. It does not
prevent GUI from looking professionally and behaving as I want. I
figured out that later I can rewrite some of the controls using Canvas
so that they could have any look at all.

Probably you refer to the known 'extra image instance' problem: when
you make PIL image for your control, you need to keep a reference to
it outside Tkinter widget too, otherwise it will be garbage collected.
