OK, I have to ask: What is "TRO"? EDIT: Never mind figured it out. I don't think I'll ever come close to OG in solving these!

CCC's aren't development tools though!

I'm glad the code contests are for keeps and this is just for fun or I'd be out of luck.
I saw the solution to this. I would have never arrived at it on my own.
I find that's just the case with CCCs.

Gregs clues are formed differently than most of us Ximenean adherents - you often have to solve a mini embedded clue before you can start on the main one
this explains it in quite a nice way
Ximenean clueing

I'd say most of the clues posted here are libertarian. I've used both styles but find that anagrams, in particular, are rarely challenging if Ximenean.

I agree , I do try and keep away from anagrams if possible because they are too easy to solve

I'm up early today! So I'll post it in about half an hour, at 11 UTC.

I'm concurrently learning Python and Tkinter... well, it really 'looks like' Tkinter has been modeled after VB6 and Windows controls.
Reading the Tkinter manual truly brings me back to the earyl 2000s, when I was very young and teaching myself VB6 on a McGrawHill book and experimenting on a VB6 copy I received as a gift from a friend of my dad.
Needless to say, I'm impressed so far on how the mechanics are exceptionally similar and how they managed to blend the whole system with Python's own language features, like dictionaries, named arguments and integrated support for lists everywhere.
EDIT: It even has its own DoEvents ! How cute! Next you will tell me that it has its own On Error Resume Next ...

It is a long time since I worked on TCL/Tk, but I found tkinter less difficult than I expected. The main problem I find is the quality of the online documentation. The best I could find is at Tkinter 8.5 reference: a GUI for Python[^].
|

|
|

I'm using TkDocs Tutorial[^] and so far I'm finding it useful and easy, maybe they updated it since you last lokked at it?

Personally I chose Tkinter for a very simple reason: it's bundled. No additional libs, no runtimes, no external tools needed.

A pity that most Python GUI frameworks have no forms designer, so I would not say that: Python + Tkinter = VB7
