sounds interesting but it needs to be a simpler application than that - to
explain I guess I need to say a bit more about what I'm writing a tutorial
for:

Its a development environment based around an ISAM database.  It has a
tool for writing and editing the database, as well as generating a GUI for
it using PyQt, so the tutorial needs to be for something as simple as
that.

I think I'm rambling and don't appear to be making much sense even to
myself.... hmmm.
