[This is my problem:] I've been using IDLE successfully to do very
very simple exercises in Python, and now I wanted to start on some
very simple exercises including the Tkinter library.
Which vwersuion of Python are you using?
In version 3 Tkinter has been renamed to tkinter
I could do import _tkinter but not import Tkinter
This is what I received back from the Shell:
import _tkinter
import Tkinter
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
import Tkinter
ImportError: No module named Tkinter
Try
import tkinter
if you are using v3.
I am running Windows XP. Installed Python 3.1, and IDLE seems to be
working okay...
OK Thats the problem, you need tkinter not Tkinter.
But if you are still at that stage of learning you might be better
downgrading to Python v2.7. Python 3.1 is getting there but its
not quite ready for beginners use just yet (IMHO).
HTH,
