IIRC, 10.4.2 ships with a more recent release than 2.4.1 - it comes
with 2.3.5. What I may not be recalling correctly is whether 2.3.5
postdates 2.4.1 or not.

For my uses - developing Unix server-side applications - which version
of Tk it links with is irrelevant. My Mac is a Unix laptop with
hardware support from the vendor. That it runs commercial apps under
Aqua is a nice bonus. That I can't get my favorite X wm on working on
it is unfortunate.

Come to think of it, that problem is OT for c.l.python - because my X
wm is written in Python, using python-xlib. So to post...
