How can I make a tkinter window unsizeable?

Aug 27th, 2000 22:31
unknown unknown, Matthew Dixon Cowles


Problem:
i have a very simple tkinter interface.  the code is more or less
#-----------------------
def MakeInterface():
    b = Pmw.ScrolledText(root, usehullsize=1, hull_width=400,
hull_height=300)
    b.pack(side=TOP, expand=0, padx=5, pady=5, anchor=S)
if __name__=='__main__':
    root = Tk()
    root.title('Title')
    MakeInterface()
    root.mainloop()
#------------------------
there are a few other things there, but not many.  how do i keep the 
user from resizing the window (minimizing i fine).
Solution:
Add
root.resizable(0,0)
after root = Tk().
That's from Fredrik Lundh's excellent An Introduction to Tkinter.
