I'd also recommend Python for System Administrators by Noah Gift and Jeremy Jones. If it's available at your local public library, I'd check it out (and well worth the $15 price used). > > My main need for python at first would be to write small programs to > perform system commands.

Python for Sys admins covers all of the above. If you want a very simple interface, I'd go with Tkinter. It's a lot easier to use than some of the bigger GUIs, like GTK, but it also sacrifices a lot of features to go with that simplicity. A couple of folks on this mailing list have python tutorials that are certainly worth a read. HTH, Wayne
