The reference to the GUIs describes OcempGUI and PGU, of which each has its strengths and weaknesses. There were several new GUIs released the last time, namely GooeyPy, Blackwings (development seems to be stalled) and UIX (no idea about it). > > I have loaded on my computer is Window OS version Python 2.5 and > it has stuff on TK and TCL and I do know that the SDL commands > work.

PGU and OcempGUI, both being pygame based UI frameworks support keyboard navigation and at least OcempGUI matching events to implement e.g. sound output on input focus changes. However, currently each pygame GUI toolkit lacks support for accessibility providers. The Tk toolkit does so as well, if I remember correctly. Can you please elaborate on how you want the buttons to be displayed (separate window or on (within) the pygame window)? Regards Marcus
