Tkinter Wiki

Tkinter is the most portable GUI toolkit for Python. The aim of this Wiki is to gather information to help Python programmers better use Tkinter.

Interesting starting points:

Tkinter: Tkinter overview
Widgets: the widgets Tkinter provides
Images: Tkinter PhotoImage objects and their idiosyncracies
tkFileDialog: How to open and save files or opening directories using a filedialog.
Recipes: General Tkinter recipes
UnicodeSupport: Making Tkinter display languages you can't understand
TkinterDiscuss: the mailing list about Tkinter
Tcl/Tk Links: useful links to Tcl and Tk
NextGenerationTkinter: the near future
Tkinter 3000: the far future?
mtTkinter: A thread-safe version of Tkinter

You can use the EditText link at the end of any page to edit it. Capitalized words joined together form a WikiName, which hyperlinks to another page. The highlighted title searches for all pages that link to the current page. Pages which do not yet exist are linked with a question mark: just follow the link and you can add a definition.
