Does Python work with Tk 8.5? I'm manually installing my own Python 2.6.1 (separate from my system's Python 2.5.2), and am about to install my own Tcl/Tk 8.5 but am unsure how to make them talk to eachother. Should I install Tk first? If I put Tk into my home directory (under "~/opt" most likely), is there some configure option I need to pass Python to tell it where to find my Tk?
Also, I see that Python comes with Tix. Was Tix supposed to be something to make up for what was lacking in Tk prior to its 8.5 release? Is Tix here to stay, or has it been eclipsed by what comes with Tk 8.5 OOTB? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
