First of all, Mac users downloading a release get Tk automatically. Secondly, your argument sounds like a variant of the argument against adding pysqlite to the core, which I think has some technical merit but little actual merit. A library can certainly be part of the core distribution even if it has dependencies on external libraries. -- Aahz ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "Argue for your limitations, and sure enough they're yours." --Richard Bach _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
