How to make a gui

Hello,

I'm trying to make a gui that will allow the user (probably just me) use sliders to adjust parameters that will be used as starting values for a fit. I'd like the changing parameter values to modify a plot of the corresponding function, superimposed over the data. I already have a working version of the plotting and fitting stuff but the parameter entry is prompt driven and tedious to use hence the desire for a gui.

The problem is that programming a gui has so far proved beyond my meagre C++ skills. Is there some way of linking a simple language like tcl/tk to the root classes? Does Python offer any advantages (or even facilities) for gui programming?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.
