I think it a mistake that tkinter.__init__ is huge, about as big as the other 13 modules added together. It makes it really hard to dive into the code. I think turtledemo would be fine, separate from turtle, if one could import and run things (one at a time) from within the interactive interpreter. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10199> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
