[QUOTE="patty, post: 4178582"]
Now I think I understand a little better where you all are coming from --
I am a Unix person and I guess I expected to have to learn GUI's using
whatever is provided for me by default. Which isn't a bad thing.   And if
I had to add additional software - and learn that - so be it.  I am using
a Windows XP system and a Windows 7 system presently.  Some day I would
like to switch out the Windows XP for Unix.

Thanks for the link to the Python page about the various packages, that
was enlightening.

Who or what group is actually in charge of what libraries (and programming
commands/methods such as the Python 3.x rewrite of 'print') goes into
Python?  Is this huge discussion really a few feature requests for
additional libraries to be included for Windows programming?  And aren't
some of these libraries developed by 3rd parties?  And how is that handled
by the people in charge?  Do they have to pay to license it or is this all
freely contributed software?
