Trying out is a good idea -- I tried out literally everything, up to and
including Amulet -- when I was looking for a toolkit before settling on
PyQt. However, I must say that it can be quite hard to get the toolkits
themselves up and running. I still haven't managed to get a working
wxPython installation on my SuSE systems; even though PyGTK on OS X was a
breeze (thanks to Fink). PyQt can be a bit of a nut to crack before it
runs, unless you buy BlackAdder. And even Tkinter isn't always as easy to
get running.
