[issue1584] Mac OS X: building with X11 Tkinter

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at acm.org> added the comment:

It certainly is still possible to patch current Pythons to build with the X11 Tk 8.5 on OS X.  For example, the current MacPorts Python ports use an X11 Tk 8.5.  Considering all the issues that have arisen with the other Tcl/Tk implementations on OS X (i.e. Cocoa Tk and Carbon Tk), I think it would be useful to provide better support for choosing which to build with.  I'll take a look at this as a possible feature.
