import sys
import Tkinter
import cStringIO

class GUIInputMgr(Tkinter.Entry):

    def __init__(self, parent):
        Tkinter.Entry.__init__(self, parent)

        sys.stdin = cStringIO.StringIO()
        self.bind("<Key>", self.__UpdateBuffer)

    def __UpdateBuffer(self, event):
        sys.stdin.truncate(0)
        sys.stdin.write(self.get())


entry = GUIInputMgr(top) # top is your Tk() instance
entry.pack()

raw_input() # should now get you user input :)
