[Pythonmac-SIG] tkinter shows chinese instead of arabic, os x

[Max Guat]

hello, 

my little lexicon-programm shows chinese (??) glyphs instead of arabic glyphs (tkinter, sqlite, python 2.5, os x - leopard). Especially, this appears in list- and entry-widgets; buttons are (rather) ok. 

File enconding, output to console is ok.
Confusing enough, the same script works fine with Windows.

any ideas?

Thank you very much
