11Usage when you have tk is *really* simple: start modulator, fill out
Guido van Rossumd2112201995-03-02 14:05:29 +000012the forms specifying all the objects and methods, tell modulator
13whether objects should also be accessible as sequences, etc and press
14'generate code'. It will write a complete skeleton module for you.
15
16Usage when you don't have tk is slightly more difficult. Look at
Guido van Rossumd14e9731999-02-16 17:19:39 +000017EXAMPLE.py for some details (to run, use "python EXAMPLE.py"). Don't
18bother with EXAMPLE.py if you have Tkinter!!!

20Oh yeah: you'll probably want to change Templates/copyright, or all
21your code ends up as being copyrighted to CWI:-)
