John, it is polite to leave attributions in place when you quote 
somebody. I don't know who you are quoting above, but given the obnoxious 
tone and the fact that this is about Tkinter, I'm guessing it is 
RantingRick, a.k.a. Rick Johnson.

Rick is a notorious troll, and you'll probably save yourself a lot of 
grief if you pay no attention to him. It's not so much that his advice is 
*always* bad, but that you'll spend so many hours sifting through the 
piles of bad advice, unprofessional language, and annoying self-
aggrandisement for the occasional nugget of gold that it just isn't worth 
it.

Which is a pity, because I gather that Rick actually does know Tkinter 
well. But dealing with him is like wrestling with a pig: 

"I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and 
besides, the pig likes it." -- George Bernard Shaw
