Project 3 – Implementing a TKinter GUI for the Internet radio

TKinter is a standard GUI framework for Python and extends the command-line driven Python interface to a window-based interface. Window-based interfaces are typically user event driven, and this significantly reduces the amount of programming required to design a GUI. In the case of a TKinter/Python application, the task is split into roughly the following components:

• UI definition and initialization code: This is typically a collection of frames, buttons, textboxes, dialogs, canvases, and so on, which are positioned in a TK window.
