Corrected version (there are several ways to do this):

freq[length] = freq.get(length, 0) + 1 # See dict.get() docs for details

Items returns a collection of key-value pairs, not a collection of
keys. If you just want the keys, omit the `.items()`.
Also, this seems to be indented wrong. You're running the output loop
once per line rather than once per file.
Finally, the dictionary yields its keys/items in no particular order;
based on the sample output, you'll need to sort the word lengths if
you want to output the table's rows in ascending order.

For which it's extremely useful. Initialize a whole bunch of variables

But:

When you do a=2 or c=['Foobar'], you're rebinding the name to a new

mend change. Use try/except to
catch exceptional situations, not normalities. If your code is going
through the except block most of the time, there's probably something
wrong. Note I don't say there IS something wrong; it's an example of
code smell, and can be correct.
Your code has much in its favour. I've been wordy in suggestions but
that doesn't mean you have bad code! :)

A new
user should learn from day one that variables need to be stored
somewhere, so Python should stop coddling its newbies and actually get
them to do things right:
var(0x14205359) x # Don't forget to provide an address where the
object will be located
x=42
After all, everyone's gotta l
acters. If you divide the contents of the file on
the "\n" character, and then try to work with the end of each line,
you may find that the string has a "\r" character at the end.

I don't know Tkinter, but from the look of the example code, he's
creating a Label that's not attached to a window, and then packing it
into nothing. The toolkit kindly creates him a window. Is that the
"root GUI window" that he means? A basic top-level window?

Has anyone ever used a very-high-level language (like Python or Ruby
or Lua) to write, say, a video driver? There is a place for the
languages that take most of the work away from the programmer, and a
place for languages that basically give you the hardware and say "have
fun". There will never be a universal language that does both jobs
perfectly. *returns the crystal ball*
