I have done a standard python2.5 install. I got the tkinter.zip from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pythonce/Tkinter-Files.zip I got this link from the pyeditce site. It is Tcl 8.4.3 I have put the 3 dlls into my windows directory as per instructions from pyeditce. I have also gone back through the past 15 months emails to find out what everyone was doing but I just can't see where the tk and library folders are meant to go. As I said I moved them around based on the sys.path but the only thing I got going was init.tcl. My sys.path looks as follows: \\Program Files\\Python25\python25.zip \\Program Files\\Python25\python25.zip\\lib-tk \\Program Files\\Python25\\DLLS \\Program Files\\Python25\\lib \\Program Files\Python25 The Tk zip file I have looks like this: \Windows\ -- has the dll files in it. I move these to the windows folder \tcl8.4.3\library \tcl8.4.3\tk8.4 I think the problem is where I place the last two and whether I need to make some config change so that python or tcl can find its various elements. All the emails I looked at seemed to be vague about this. I assume because it was too obvious to mention. But this is the bit that has me stumped. If you can let me know how you set this up I would much appreciate it. Thanks John Aherne ___ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce
Re: [PythonCE] tk/tcl
You don't need that Tkinter download nor the tcl/tk download. The Python25 cab has everything needed to run its own version of Tkinter. You are mixing versions of Python. The instructions that you were following were for an older version of python, version 2.4.3, I think. You need to "lose" all of those files. You are confusing your python25 install. Python 25 should have come with its own version of the three files (not directories but files) that go in the Windows directory. CELIB is essential and the two dll's called tcl84.dll and tk84.dll Do not create directories and sub directories under windows and put stuff in them. These three files belong in \\Windows. As I was previously mentioning, unless you deliberately want a stand alone tcl installation, you don't need to be tinkering with strange directory structures like \tcl8.4.3\library \tcl8.4.3\tk8.4 (1) Remove all of your python25 stuff and those 8.4.3 tkinter files as well as those old tcl84.dll and tk84.dll files and that windows sub directory stuff, (2) re-install python25 and only if the installation fails to place celib, tcl84.dll and tk84.dll in the \\Windows directory, will I attempt to find out "what happened", get you those files and upload them to you. (3) do a soft reboot. Again, Don't use old tcl84 and tk84 files!. When the python interpreter starts up, type in import Tkinter root = Tkinter.Tk() and then tell me what happens... ___ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/tk-tcl-tf2944684.html#a8258612 Sent from the Python - pythonce mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ PythonCE mailing list PythonCE@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce

[PythonCE] tk/tcl
Thanks for the clarification. As you said I cleaned up the pda and reinstalled pythonce2.5 using the .exe. I checked the windows folder and there were no celib.dll,tcl84.dll and tk84.dll present. I did a search for them and found nothing. So when I tried to import Tkinter it came back and said runtime error could not find CeLib.DLL. I did try to put back the dll from that download I did of tkinter.zip but that produced other errors. So I deleted them and went back to the clean setup. I am hoping you can point me to the right place to get the files. Thanks for taking the time.

I put them all in \Windows. import Tkinter works I got the WM5 message about permission for unsigned tcl and tk programs wanting to run. So I know it found them. root = Tkinter.Tk() gave me an error as follows:-- Tk_init error: invalid command name "tcl_findLibrary" Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\dev1\release\PythonCE-2.5-20061219\Python-2.5-wince\Lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1636, in __init__ TclError: invalid command name "tcl_findLibrary" Looking at the line it seems to be about creating a screen.

Re: [PythonCE] tk/tcl
Place these two files in your \\Python25\\Lib directory and then run root = Tkinter.Tk() again. http://www.nabble.com/file/5569/Tkinter.py Tkinter.py http://www.nabble.com/file/5570/Tkinter.pyc Tkinter.pyc again, soft reset is always a good idea at this point.
