Treffer: Introduction to GUI Programming.

Python codes can quickly be altered and re-run, a property that encourages direct editing of the source code to change parameters and program behavior. This type of hardcoded changes is usually limited to the developer of the code. However, the edit-and-run strategy may soon be error-prone and introduce bugs. Most users, and even the developer, of a script will benefit from some kind of user interface. In Chapter 2 we have defined user interfaces through command-line options, which are very convenient if a script is to be called from other scripts. A stand-alone application, at least as seen from an end-user, is often simpler to apply if it is equipped with a self-explanatory graphical user interface (GUI). This chapter explains how easy it is to add a small-size GUI to Python scripts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
