I've been trying to get Tile to work with python. It can make your tkinter apps look like http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/screenshots/demo-alt-unix.png See http://tktable.sourceforge.net/tile/ Under linux I built tile from source, installed and it just works. import Tkinter root = Tkinter.Tk() root.tk.call('package', 'require', 'tile') root.tk.call('namespace', 'import', '-force', 'ttk::*') root.tk.call('tile::setTheme', 'alt') ### Widgets are now pretty! Under win32, I installed the binary package into python/tcl (i.e. python/tcl/tile0.5) with all the other tcl packages, but tcl can't find it. Any ideas? Traceback (most recent call last): File "Script1.py", line 5, in ? root.tk.call('package', 'require', 'tile') _tkinter.TclError: can't find package tile Stephen.
