Richard, Pythonista looks cool, I doubt that you can run tkimter with it. That would require that some had done a port of tk itself to the iPad.
In theory, pyObjC could be an option, but the only ready to go solution i know of is Kivy--which is pretty different thanTK, but should do the job. http://kivy.org Chris On Saturday, November 16, 2013, Richard Fuhr wrote: > I really discovered the Pythonista app, which enables the user to develop > and run Python programs on the iPad and iPhone. > > Several years ago, I developed a small Python program that uses Tkinter, > and am now interested in porting it from the Mac to the iPad where it could > run using Pythonista. > > However, a preliminary test using the interactive Python prompt in > Pythonista shows that Tkinter is not available. > > In particular, when I enter *Tkinter import ** the interpreter produces > an error message.
