How do I pull the updated information from a tkinter form?

[Steve]

OK, I was closer than I thought.

Two weeks ago, the concept of tkinter and these forms were totally new to me
as well as, about  two days ago, python list was totally new too. I somehow
thought that "window.mainloop()" was supposed to be the last entry in the
function, silly me...
I did not think of returning the list.

Thank you, now it is back for another 30 hours of continuous programming...

The updated data is in the StringVar-s, which, fortunately, you have
available in a list ;)

So:

> def EditDataByForm():
[...]
>     window.mainloop()
      return [spec.get() for spec in New_Specs]

  print(EditDataByForm())
> print ("Done")
