PyMsgBox module in Python

PyMsgBox is simple, cross-platform, purely implemented in Python for message boxes as JavaScript has. It uses Python's built-in Tkinter module for its GUI.

Installation

This module does not built-in Python. To install it type the below command in the terminal.

There are four functions in PyMsgBox, which follow JavaScript’s message box naming conventions:
