Please correct me if I am wrong. It seems that most of the python GUI 
builders require or is based on wxPython or others and not tkinter. I am 
using Mac OSX with Fink, so it is a real hassle for me to build wxPython 
and install it (haven't had much luck over the last 4-6 tries).

So, is there any python GUI builders based on tkinter? Personally, I 
prefer to drag and design a screen rather than programming it abstractly.

Thanks
