At least for 2.6 and 2.7 it will preferentially use ActiveState's Tcl/Tk if found. However, I have not confirmed that with python.org Python 3.1 and I don't know what major version of Tcl/Tk it wants (8.4, 8.5 or 8.6). -- Russell _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
