As you can see, I am playing around with the Tkinter GUI toolkit. How can I keep a number of widgets fixed in a location even when the user expands the window?

What do I do if I want two buttons and the NW corner is already taken by the first button?

You need to learn to experiment a little with the code, its fun!
[php]# let user resize the Tkinter window, but do not move widgets
from Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
b1 = Button(root, text='Button 1')
# tells the widget not to expand into the packing cell
# and to anchor itself to the NW (upper left) corner
b1.pack(expand=NO, anchor=NW)
b2 = Button(root, text='Button 2')
# tells the widget not to expand into the packing cell
# and to anchor itself to the next free NW (upper left) corner
b2.pack(expand=NO, anchor=NW)
root.mainloop()
[/php]
