Adding GUI elements to Python scripts
GUI Treatment
If you need to add graphical elements to Python script, EasyGUI can help beginners and experts alike.
When it comes to wrapping up Python scripts into a graphical interface, you have several options, including Tkinter, wxPython, PySide, and PyGTK, but using these libraries is overkill if you just want to add a few GUI elements to a Python script to make it more user friendly.
In this case, EasyGUI is a much better tool for the job because it allows you to add common graphical elements without going through the rigmarole of coding GUI by hand. For example, a simple task like displaying a message box using the PyGTK toolkit requires a hefty chunk of code (see Listing 1).
