You don't need that Tkinter download nor the tcl/tk download. The Python25 cab has everything needed to run its own version of Tkinter. You are mixing versions of Python. The instructions that you were following were for an older version of python, version 2.4.3, I think. You need to "lose" all of those files. You are confusing your python25 install.
Python 25 should have come with its own version of the three files (not directories but files) that go in the Windows directory. CELIB is essential and the two dll's called tcl84.dll and tk84.dll Do not create directories and sub directories under windows and put stuff in them. These three files belong in \\Windows. As I was previously mentioning, unless you deliberately want a stand alone tcl installation, you don't need to be tinkering with strange directory structures like \tcl8.4.3\library \tcl8.4.3\tk8.4 (1) Remove all of your python25 stuff and those 8.4.3 tkinter files as well as those old tcl84.dll and tk84.dll files and that windows sub directory stuff, (2) re-install python25 and only if the installation fails to place celib, tcl84.dll and tk84.dll in the \\Windows directory, will I attempt to find out "what happened", get you those files and upload them to you. (3) do a soft reboot. Again, Don't use old tcl84 and tk84 files!. When the python interpreter starts up, type in import Tkinter root = Tkinter.Tk() and then tell me what happens... _______________________________________________ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/tk-tcl-tf2944684.html#a8258612 Sent from the Python - pythonce mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce
