This is very true, i guess i am avoiding it till later but the easier option would be to jump straight to the GUI

I would have to right more than just that to fully support the script i am making that would only solve that one section how i would then have to deal with dynamic list boxes which may not be too much of an issue.

The reason i choose to learn Python was for the very reason it was simple and i wanted to look into network programming in some language and Python has proven its simplicity for that and the GUI will be an added bonus.

Looks like im just going to be skipping down to the GUI section of my project thanks Sane.


any suggested Tkinter tutorials?
