confirmation that it does work.

I used that book a couple of years ago. I don't recall having any
major issues with it, but I ended up going with wxPython since I
needed some specialized widgets that I couldn't find in Tkinter at the

I am using:

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Dec  1 2008, 17:47:46)

If you mean calc1.py, I had no trouble with calc1.py under 2.5, but calc2.py 
uses Pmw, which I do not have. calc2 has a few problems with mixing tabs and 
blanks.
