Probably better is to get Grayson (google "Grayson Tkinter"). It covers 
Tkinter <--> Tcl/Tk mapping to sufficient extent for Tkinter 
proficiency. I have found the online Tcl/Tk documentation to fill in the 
gaps.

Tkinter seems to me to have been created largely automatically and so 
has much of the documentation that maps it to Tcl/Tk. This begs the 
question, is anyone truly an expert in Tkinter?
