Re^2: Tk in Strawberry on W10

All I want is a simple life !! Again, guidance will be much appreciated

While I strongly sympathize with your current lamentable installation problems, crafting quality GUIs is a complex art, requiring considerable skill and taste! It is not a simple life. A few examples from On Interfaces and APIs:

Adopt the user's perspective; provide natural mappings; communicate actions to user; provide feedback; prevent, detect and forgive errors
Cater for both novice and expert; for novice: easy-to-learn, discoverable, tips, help; for expert: efficiency, flexibility, shortcuts, customizability
Ask forgiveness, not permission; make all actions reversible; be polite, remember what the user entered last time
... and many many more :-)

In case it's of use to you, or a future monk, I've made a first attempt at cobbling together: GUI References. Suggestions for other useful GUI references welcome.

👁️🍾👍🦟
