I admire your optimism! :-)
Have you actually proved it by getting some of the basics to work?

Ah! It's that BLT, I didn't know there was a Python port.

The home page of the tcl project is supposed to be:

www.tcltk.com/blt.

According to my Tcl in a Nushell book.

Its an extension that you have to install on top of tcl.
You may have to do that before using it from PMW.

There may be a forum of some sort there that can help.
