Hi all

I've had no responses so far to my message about not being able to run
IDLE, is there some other place I can go for help with it?

For reference I am using OS 10.3.9 and installed Python 2.4.3 as
instructed on the install page. I then tried to run IDLE, which
produced a console error about not being able to find TKInter.

I then installed the TkAqua package from the Python install page and
tried again. Now IDLE runs, but then hangs as soon as I click on
anything (window, menu etc.) and never recovers.

What do I need to do to get IDLE to run?

Most people here are probably using OSX 10.4 or don't use IDLE. I'll have a look at this issue tomorrow, IIRC IDLE works correctly for me on my 10.3.9 box but I can't test right now. I have the latest version of AquaTk installed (which you can download from http://tcltkaqua.sourceforge.net/).

I haven't gotten around to debugging this (2.5c2 will be released very soon and pax is hating me right now), but IDLE in MacPython 2.4 doesn't work for me after all. I'm seeing the same behaviour as you: IDLE starts, but hangs immediately (I have a shell window with a Tk console on top, the beachball keeps spinning forever).

IDLE in MacPython 2.5c2 (to be released RSN) does work correctly.
