: I'm running the latest Slackware (2.2), along with the last major releases
: of Tcl and Tk (i.e. not the current betas.) Whenever I try to run a program
: which uses Tk menus, it doesn't work; the program _runs_, but when I click
: on the menu button, nothing happens.
Same for me :( At first I tought it was because I recompiled everything
using the new ELF format, but it seems the problem is not here. Tcl is
version 7.3 and Tk 3.6. The menus do not work, and some demo programs
give me even error messages on the console. For example
Demo/tkinter/guido/dialog.py gives me the following input after
displaying the 3rd dialog box ("File Modified"):
1:39 [root:p2] farzy:/usr/src/Python-1.2/Demo/tkinter/guido# python dialog.py
pressed button 0
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (innermost last):

TclError: bad window path name "135192736"
All the demos used to work for me under python 1.1.1 and tcl tk with
the same versions as above.
