[Tutor] How Do I enable TKinter

No wonder, there is none...  The Python 2.0 build process is IMHO slightly
less than optimal.  This is a lot better in 2.1, though.
Anyway, what you want is the Modules/Setup file.
Run configure, then copy Modules/Setup.in (or Modules/Setup.dist?  use the one
that exists. :) to Modules/Setup and edit it.  Then make and make install,
as usual.
All this is IIRC, it's been a while since I compiled 2.0.

Peace,
