I am using Windoze, I suspect the appearance attributes I am asking

Using Tkinter, I would like to generate a Checkbutton that is filled
in with a solid colour rather than a tick mark when selected.
tk = Tk()
tk.option_add("*Checkbutton.inidcatorOn", 0)
Could somebody provide some pointers as to how I could achieve this?
Also, John Shipman's Tkinter reference shows the Radiobutton drawn as
a diamond and yet when I create one in Windows I get a circle - again,
how and where do I need to look to change this behaviour?
Thanks

Shipman's screenshots are made under Tk 8.4/X11, featureing the
motif look-a-like.
Tk 8.4 follows the windows user style guide (windows95) under windows.
You could still get the motif look under windows:
Tk 8.5 is bundled with a theming engine ttk, this engine
uses the built-in theming engine under windows xp and later,
but also allows you to supplant this engine.
The related ttk theme is called "classic".
