The tcltutor is fabulous and I've often toyed with the idea of trying to build a Pythonic version. I particularly like the way you can toggle from newbie view to expert view and get the same feature described in friendly English prose through to the bare man pages. > The python tutorial is great and probably all one needs to learn the > language but I think a more interactive program to teach it might be I tried at one stage producing JavaScripted versions of the code in my tutor where you could step through the code with the active line being highlighted in colour - like a debugger.

The other one in similar vein is to do a demo program of the Tkinter (and the Tix widgets too) similar to the Tcl/Tk demo program.
