Lou, when you respond by email, please snip the already posted email you are 
responding to.  The redundant noise makes *your* message harder to read.  
(Leaving an especially relevant line or two is OK.)

E.Paine.  Thank you for the confirmation.  Learning tcl/tk well enough to write 
test cases like this is something I have avoided, and Serhiy mostly works on 
other modules.  I hope you continue.

E. Paine  added the comment:

I tested the demo Python script and also had it stop at 1309. I wrote a small 
tcl script (a simplified version of the Python demo) to test in wish (see 
attached) which stopped at 1058.
It is strange that tkinter stops later than wish, however I would still 
conclude this is a tcl problem not tkinter or Python.

However, limitations in tcl/tk are out of our control.  So we may close this as 
3rd party.  Python also has undocumented limitations, which we close as "won't 
fix".
