Possibly significant: This is not the Python provided by Mac OS; you have multiple installations of Python. Can you try this, please? >>> import sys, tkinter >>> sys.executable, tkinter.__file__ Might be that you're getting tkinter from a different installation, which could break all manner of things. Might be not, too, but worth checking. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
