Sounds like what you want to do is subclass Button:
#################################################################
# probably won't work as I'm doing this off the
# top of my head, but you get the picture
from Tkinter import *
class b_Button(Button):
def __init__(self, r, myName):
self.myName = myName
Button.__init__(self, r, text=myName, command=self.introduceMyself)
def introduceMyself(self):
print "Hello, from button", self.myName
root = Frame()
root.pack()
for b in ("shoes", "ships", "sealing-wax", "cabbages", "kings"):
b_Button( root, b).pack()
root.mainloop()
