PaperClip

This application was created for my grandmother to use to help her with sending attachments with emails. I decided to name it PaperClip due to the common image of a paper clip being used to attach things to emails. So I decided to utilize some of my programming skills to help her out a bit.

I created a simple GUI utilizing the python module for her to send emails through, Tkinter: https://wiki.python.org/moin/TkInter
