*yawn* Isn't Windows-bashing boring? Aren't we all cross-platform here?
FWIW, I wish someone had pointed out _this_ bug more clearly before I
started using tkinter:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=216289&group_id=547
0&atid=105470
as so far my experience has been that my noddy tkinter GUIs run fine on
WinNT4 but crash _hard_ on exit ~30% of the time on Win98. ActivePython 2.2;
not a whisper of known tkinter issues in the release notes or documentation.
Granted, the bug reports point the finger at Tcl/Tk rather than tkinter, but
it's rather put me off considering tkinter for production solutions in our
largely Windows-based shop.
