>So running Tk 8.5 with python 2.6 under mac wasn't a problem for you ? This is confusing me because the thread was about this, so I was considering you were in the same boat. Anyway, just to confirm: the code you pasted now, if you convert it to tcl code and run from wish (for example) it doesn't work either right ? There are some problems in the current _tkinter wrapper, I just found one now while reading an issue in the bug tracker (http://bugs.python.org/issue1028) and there are probably others around there, so if it doesn't work while using tkinter it doesn't necessarily means it won't in tcl/tk. > Fred. > -- -- Guilherme H.
