That's not quite accurate. With Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), Apple distributes both a Tcl/Tk 8.4 and 8.5 and does not distribute a Python 3.x, only Python 2.6 and 2.5. If you are using a Python 3.1.x installer for Mac OS X from python.org, it is linked only with Tk 8.4, although you can install a more recent version of Tcl/Tk 8.4 from ActiveState. Python 3.2, which is scheduled to be officially released this weekend, will have two OS X installers, one only for OS X 10.6 and linked with Tcl/Tk 8.5. However, there are a number of serious problems with the version of Tcl/Tk 8.5 currently supplied by Apple with OS X 10.6; to successfully use tkinter (and IDLE) with this version you must also install the most recent ActiveState Tcl/Tk 8.5.9 version for OS X. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
