Just as a side note for Terry and anyone else testing on macOS... the recent
updates in Tk have smoothed out many of the appearance issues for the classic
widgets. See the attached screen shot tkversions.png comparing 8.6.9 with the
current trunk of the Tk repo. Notice things like the background color around
the optionmenu aren't as jarring on the newer Tk versions.
Having said that, I'll likely stick with the older ones for development
purposes, just because the blemishes with the classic widgets and other things
are so much more noticeable!
Incidentally, if you've got several versions of Tcl/Tk on your system, you can
use /usr/bin/install_name_tool to point the Tkinter shared library at the one
you want to use. Use like "install_name_tool -change OLD NEW file", e.g.:
install_name_tool -change /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.6/Tk
/Users/roseman/tmp/tcl86core/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.6/Tk
build/lib.macosx-10.15-x86_64-3.10/_tkinter.cpython-310-darwin.so
