That is just a peculiarity of TCL; a "-" is added to the option by the
Python wrapper before passing it along

This extra "-" confuses people when showing up in the Traceback info. Can't 
figure out why the author want to do this.

To clarify what Peter said, tkinter is a GUI library written in the Tcl programming language.

The 'tkinter' module in Python's standard library is just a wrapper around that library.

The Perl and Ruby programming languages also have wrappers.
The "-" is added because the Tcl language requires it.
