Answer : hide a button

Use pack_forget, like this:

import Tkinter
from Tkconstants import *

def showcurrent():
    button.pack_forget()

tk = Tkinter.Tk()
frame = Tkinter.Frame(tk, relief=RIDGE, borderwidth=2)
frame.pack(fill=BOTH,expand=1)
label = Tkinter.Label(frame, text="Click the button to hide it")
label.pack(fill=X, expand=1)
button = Tkinter.Button(text="Hide me", command = showcurrent)
button.pack(side=BOTTOM, padx=4)
tk.mainloop()
