Under MacOS 9 with MacPython run the ConfigurePythonClassic applet and 
Tkinter will start working. Tk doesn't work under the newer Carbon 
execution model, and probably never will.

Under Mac OS X you can use Tkinter with the normal unix Python (not with 
MacPython), but you have to do all the building and installing yourself. 
Look through the pythonmac-sig archives for details.
