#! /usr/bin/python2.7 # A Python program implementing rmt, an application for remotely # controlling other Tk applications. # Cf. Ousterhout, Tcl and the Tk Toolkit, Figs. 27.5-8, pp. 273-276. # Note that because of forward references in the original, we # sometimes delay bindings until after the corresponding procedure is # defined. We also introduce names for some unnamed code blocks in # the original because of restrictions on lambda forms in Python. # XXX This should be written in a more Python-like style!!! from Tkinter import * import sys # 1.
