python and Tkinter

hi.

i don't know python...
so i tried to start it from a shell with:

python sys:System/Python/Lib/lib-tk/tkSimpleDialog.py

but i only get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "sys:System/Python/Lib/lib-tk/tkSimpleDialog.py", line 28, in <module>
from Tkinter import *
File "WorkBench:System/Python/Lib/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 38, in <module>
import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ImportError: No module named _tkinter

smth wrong on my side?

thanks and regards...

I think that means that the tkinter.py module is not available under AmigaOS 4.x currently (unless the new one for 4.1 update 2 has something I don't know about). The IDLE IDE is based on TkInter also so it would be nice to get that working sometime.

Most of the other GUIs for Python are either KDE, Gnome or wxWidgets derived. It might be possible to run a custom GUI from PyGame using Phil's PyGame Utilites assuming PyGame has been ported to OS 4.x.

This is correct. Amiga Python doesn't currently support Tk.
