I had trouble finding it too, it was redirected to somewhere else and marked as private because of spam. I asked a tk developer for the issue and he kindly pasted the comments here: http://paste.tclers.tk/1381?v=raw I didn't want to go offtopic here but it raises a question about handling bgerror and I don't know where else I should ask this so.. I have been working on a new _tkinter (before I went traveling, back now) and I have been supporting the use of bgerror but would like to know what kind of problems it used to cause to Tkinter or _tkinter. For IDLE specifically I had to disable it. > If it fixes a problem with supporting Tcl 8.5, then I will also reject > the request.

Even though you can say that tcl 8.5 is not supported by python 2.5, _tkinter doesn't enforce this. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4342> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
