Martin the tkFileDialog.ask* uses the platform specific Open, Save
dialogs which DO contain a ListCtrl. Obviously this ListCtrl is not
available to Tkinter uses. You just exposed your weak knowledge of
Tkinter and sadly you are very high on the community totem pole. Very
sad :(




Aha, that's why that Open File window was accessible for JAWS screen reader, 
although it uses Tk... because actually it doesn't use Tk.
