Displaying a picture with tkinter

[Arthur Perlo]

Thanks to those who replied to my original post. It looks
as if, within Python, PIL is the way to go for me. My initial
attempts to install PIL have not been crowned with success.
But that will be a separate post -- If I decide to persist 
(instead of going back to plain old X/Motif).

Thanks again,
-- Art
