[Tkinter-discuss] Tkinter vs Tk strangness

[Daniel.Schep at srnl.doe.gov]

I wanted to do this instead of using the Tcl from ActiveState but couldn't 
find a tclsh or wish executable in Python's Tcl install. How would I run 
code using Python's Tcl distribution?

Have you tried to run the tcl example with the Tcl/Tk version shipped
with Python? My first guess would be, that it is a problem with this Tk
version and has nothing to do with Python.
