   The old Swing is the worst, particularly cutting off the Cancel button
text.

   The multi-line text boxes differ markedly in whether they wrap or have
scroll bars and whether the scrollbars are visible or disabled. Tkinter's
scroll bar thumbs can fill the scrollbars yet not change to empty/disabled
mode. It looks like there is one new line after the text but GTK(2) makes
the text scrollable vertically for no obvious reason. GTK crops the first
radio button's text "g" vertically. Probably the "p" and "y" too but that is
harder to detect. The choice of font for the text edit is weird on MacOS
Tkinter and Jython/W2K - choosing Courier or similar is against platform
standards. Different list behaviour with GTK(2) because it doesn't associate
the current item with selection (see the dotted rectangle on a different
item to the blue). Non-standard button size and default button highlighting
on Windows. Not putting a border around the text box on MacOS. On MacOS, the
Cancel button is too small to show the normal amount of space around the
text and the OK button overlaps the window sizer. On the wxPython and
Jython/W2K versions there are focus indicators in both the text edit (a
caret) and the list (dark blue selection, assuming standard colours with
blue for focussed selection and grey for unfocussed).
