The Tk fix Terry refers is applicable only to the OS X Aqua Cocoa Tcl/Tk 8.5 port. It has nothing to do with Windows, any other OS X Tcl/Tk, or any other platform. Further, the Tcl/TK source Martin is talking about is used only by the Windows installer builds. The python.org OS X installers do not build or supply Tcl/Tk; they link with the Apple-supplied Tcl/Tks and compatible distributions, like the ActiveState ones. So this is all a non-issue. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
