Thank you for you quick anwser. I am getting an error well documented: RuntimeError: _tkinter.createfilehandler not supported for threaded Tcl I am using the Aqua Batteries-Included and I was wondering if it was easy/recommended to rebuild the package with the single threaded option or will the x implementation be a better solution if I want to be sure that what ever I am doing can run on linux. Thanks Eric
