Hi Xplorers, A question about python/Tk interface of Xplor-NIH.
I am testing xplor-nih v.2.10. Installation follows the instructions in the INSTALL file. After installation, testDist gives positive results, claiming all the 145 tests of xplor, 21 tests of python and 5 tests of tcl passed. But when I run xplor -py -pydoc -g It gives an ImportError for module Tkinter, which apparently is the problem of search path setting, which again is a list of ['', '/home/tong/calxplor','/usr/local/xplor/bin.Linux_2.4_i686', '/usr/local/xplor/python', '/usr/local/xplor/python/wrappers', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist', '/usr/local/xplor/python/bin.Linux_2.4_i686', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist/lib/python23.zip', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist/lib/python2.3', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist/lib/python2.3/plat-linux2', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist/lib/python2.3/lib-tk', '/usr/local/xplor/python/dist/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload'] To my supprise, I didn't see .../python/disk/lib/... directories in the xplor package I installed, which is downloaded freshly from NIH site. And I am not sure why there should be a empty search path as the first element of the list. For xplor v2.9.4a, it does not gives the same error messege when I invoke the command, but Tkinter is still not avaible in the search paths. So my two questions: 1. How to fix it? Or how to setup in xplor the python distribution already installed in the system? 2. Should the testDist include a routine to test the graphics interface? Yufeng Yufeng Tong Dept. Physiol. & Biophys.
