Yes, it does.

It is a bit strange but, back in the day, there wasn't a better multi-platform 
GUI option and, even today, Tk (and Tcl) remain attractive because it is 
supported on the many important platforms and does not have the license issues 
that some other GUI toolkits have had.  And because of inertia.  Also, Python 
is not alone in this: Perl and Ruby also have Tk bindings that work the same 
way, AFAIK.
