tkFileDialog.askopenfilenames not regonizing -multiple option

[Tim Williams]

Hi.

I'm using Python 2.3 and trying to use tkFileDialog to get a list of
files. I get a message about the '-multiple' option is not a valid
option in the call to Open.


Python 2.3 (#1, Aug  4 2003, 10:43:11) 
[GCC 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from Tkinter import *
>>> import tkFileDialog
>>> root=Tk()
>>> files=tkFileDialog.askopenfilenames()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "tkFileDialog.py", line 133, in askopenfilenames
    return Open(**options).show()
  File "tkCommonDialog.py", line 52, in show
    s = w.tk.call(self.command, *w._options(self.options))
_tkinter.TclError: bad option "-multiple": must be -defaultextension,
-filetypes, -initialdir, -initialfile, -parent, or -title



~> tclsh
% info tclversion
8.3

Thanks for any help.
