Don't bother building it yourself. Either use the 3.1.2 installer from here: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.1.2/ or wait a bit until the 3.1.3 OS X installer becomes available (I don't know how long that will be). Either way, the 32-bit Pythons installed by the python.org installers will use an ActiveState Tcl/Tk 8.4 (from /Library/Frameworks) if available at run time, otherwise they will use the Apple-installed Tcl/Tk 8.4 in /System/Library/Frameworks. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
