The above sentence from another thread describes well my current status.

In the last few years I wrote a series of programs in Python for Structural 
Analysis for Engineering structures.  IMHO, Python is a great teaching 
language that enables one to expose the basic principles of programming 
without having to go into extraneous details.

Currently those programs lack GUI.  I would like to write GUI with a minimum 
need to substantially change my extant Python programs and a 
minimum "immersion" into yet another computer language (I am 83 and have 
learned many languages - computer since the valve computer days as well as 
human - in my long and varied life).

PyQt interface looks pretty, it is an integral part of KDE, so it seems like 
the right candidate for my objectives.  

Is it possible to create a GUI with QtDesigner and "assemble" it into PyQt 
from the *.ui files and then outside of the QtDesigner call extant Python 
programs?  Or is that an impossible dream?

If that is possible, how can I achieve that aim with the latest (?) QtDesigner 
version 3.3.8?

Your suggestions on this topic will be gratefully received.

Yours sincerely,
