While we are on the subject of Tk...

Does anyone know how to install Tcl/Tk on a 10.2.3 system so that I can use the default Python in conjunction with Apple's X11 app to run some Python scripts with Tkinter? Please don't say fink. Fink keeps coughing when I try to install the X11 place holder it installs so I do not wipe out Apple's X11 install. I can't seem to get Tk 8.4 to build either. It gives me an error after I run make.

Any help with this issue would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Have you tried the 8.4.1 packages for Jaguar at tcl.sourceforge.net ? (Check File Distributions at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10894)

Yes.

They are for the Aqua interface and are incomplete and difficult to work with compared to unix Tk.

Also, the Tk unix version will not compile on 10.2.3 without errors. You have to make a Framework.

PITA

Thanks.
