new location for John Shipman's Tkinter reference manual
by Mark Roseman Oct. 10, 2020

Oct. 10, 2020

As many of you know, John had created a substantial and valuable reference to Tkinter prior to his retirement from New Mexico Tech in 2013. He passed away in 2017. While it hadn’t been updated, it could still be found on infohost.nmt.edu <http://infohost.nmt.edu/> until last year, when some sort of reorg permanently shut down the server. Most likely, there’s no interest from anyone who might claim a copyright to the material to pursue it further. There are a couple unofficial mirrors that have been kicking around, but nothing that appears permanent. More background at https://bugs.python.org/issue37149 In the interest of keeping this resource available on a more permanent basis, I’ve placed a copy on the TkDocs site: https://tkdocs.com/shipman/ <https://tkdocs.com/shipman/> If you maintain web pages that link to the original site, you’re more than welcome to link to this copy.

major update to TkDocs tutorial
by Mark Roseman Oct. 10, 2020

Oct. 10, 2020

Just wanted to let people know that I’ve done a major revamp of the multi-lingual Tk tutorial at https://tkdocs.com <https://tkdocs.com/> This was one of those “it would be nice to spend a few days to update some things” that somehow morphed into several weeks of solid work. I’ve added a ton of new material, and gone through and cleaned up all the existing pieces. I’m pretty stoked about it. If you have a chance, please take a look, and spread the word. I’d be grateful if you let me know about any new errors that might have crept in… Mark
