  Using a geometry manager, such as "pack", you usually do not need
  to know when a window has been resized or to know that width.

  You need to read a good tkinter book and learn about:

tkinter.Tk
pack
tkinter.Frame
side=tkinter.LEFT
side=tkinter.RIGHT
expand=tkinter.YES
fill=tkinter.X
fill=tkinter.Y
fill=tkinter.BOTH

  . I'd recommand the GUI part of "Programming Python" by Mark Lutz!

  The geometry manages "pack" and "grid" should be able
  to handle 99 percent of all GUI geometry requirements,
  so you would need a good reason not to use them.
