I've not done any Pascal in 20 years, but I think you might be
merging Pascal and Python.
Pascal had no real I/O, and no concept of graphics at all. Maybe
there's been some libraries (like a pascal->libx11 link) created since
I worked with it, but I'm not familiar with them.
Python is a modern scripting/dynamic language. It supports several
graphics tools including Tk, gTk and Wx.
I can't help you with Python or Pascal, but if you want to learn
Tcl (and the Tk graphics), you can get TclTutor from:
