It appears, from a cursory glance, that Tk widgets are not updated when
you hit return in an interactive session. If you do 'b.update()', you'll
see the results. Likewise if you start b.mainloop(). So the demos and
programs that I've tried work fine, it's just the interactive behaviour
that's different. I'm not sure how it worked before, though.
