Once again thanks. The next lack of knowledge I am exhibiting is that I can't get the _tkinter.c to compile and link. What I have found so far is that there is a python script called setup.py that is run. It tries to detect where the tcl-tk stuff is to build the _tkinter module. From my trace it appears that it is unable to do this on my machine. I have both cygwish80 and wish83. The cygtk80.dll and cygtcl80.dll are located in /usr/bin. The libtcl83.a and libtk83.a are located in /usr/local/lib. I am unable to provide enough information by modifying setup.py so that gcc can link _tkinter.o. I end up with a bunch of unresolved references. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
