I am not 100% certain about that, but to me it seems that on the tcl side ttk:themes is newer and thus preferable to theme names which maybe is only still there for backwards compatibility. Since as a Tkinter user I like Tkinter methods to behave like their Tcl/Tk counterparts (which, if nothing else, helps a lot in reading and understanding tcl code/documentation (and possibly "translating" tcl code into Python)) I had rather kept theme_names() intact to avoid confusion. Maybe there could simply a line like "Deprecated since Python-xy, use themes() instead." be added to theme_names' doc string ? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17397> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
