So much that I want to respond to, but I am rapidly running out of minutes before I have to get ready for work. 
 
I am currently giving Python another look.  Now I remember what held me back before.  I think the language itself is not a problem, but I am struggling to decide on a GUI and have not found an IDE yet that peeks my interest.  I quickly get frustrated with the minutia of coding UI objects like buttons and frames.  I would much prefer to have a WYSIWYG editor for laying out components and generating the code in the background.  There is likely a utility out there and I have just overlooked it at this point.  Meanwhile, I will keep browsing.
das123,
What tool sets did you find useful when creating Dom3Bak?  (Nice app btw!)
