+EasyGUI is a module for very simple, very easy GUI programming in Python.
+
+Experienced Pythonistas need support for quick and dirty GUI features.
+New Python programmers need GUI capabilities that don't require any
+knowledge of Tkinter, frames, widgets, callbacks or lambda. This is
+what EasyGUI provides. Using EasyGUI, all GUI interactions are invoked
+by simple function calls.
+EasyGUI is different from other GUIs in that EasyGUI is NOT event-driven.
+It allows you to program in a traditional linear fashion, and to put up
+dialogs for simple input and output when you need to. If you have not yet
+learned the event-driven paradigm for GUI programming, EasyGUI will allow
+you to be productive with very basic tasks immediately. Later, if you wish
+to make the transition to an event-driven GUI paradigm, you can move to an
+event-driven style with a more powerful GUI package such as anygui,
+PythonCard, Tkinter, wxPython, etc. EasyGui is there just to do very basic
+stuff. More elaborate stuff should be done with more powerful tools.
+EasyGUI is built on top of Tkinter.
