Establishing socket connections to Synthesis Toolkit

Howdy,
I would like to use the Synthesis Toolkit for a demo. I downloaded
the STK from http://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk/index.html. It
seems very powerful and user friendly. There are bindings for socket
connections and TCL gui examples. I would like to get one of the demo
samples work with Python/wxPython. I am including the TCL code for
the drums demo (this was the shortest one).
Has anybody converted this to wxPython? If yes, would you be kind
enough to share the code?
If not,
How do I establish a socket connection for localhost and port 2001 in
Python?
And how do I send commands to this connection once it is established?
Thank you in advance,
Mangabasi
