[Tkinter-discuss] Python 3.4.0 alpha 2 available

[Ned Deily]

I would like call your attention to the latest alpha release of Python 
3.4.0 and a new batteries-included feature for OS X users.  For 
3.4.0.a2, the python.org 64-bit/32-bit installer now includes its own 
private version of Tcl/Tk 8.5.14 so it is no longer necessary to install 
a third-party version of Tcl/Tk 8.5 to workaround the problematic system 
versions shipped in OS X 10.6+.  Unlike Pythons from previous 
installers, only this private version will be used by tkinter and IDLE. 
It will have no effect on or be affected by any other versions of Tcl/Tk 
installed on your system, such as ActivelTcl 8.5.x or Apple 8.5.x.

Since this is a new feature and somewhat experimental, it may change 
prior to the official release of Python 3.4.0, planned for 2014-02.  
There will be other OS X installer-related changes coming.  Please 
report any problems or issues you encounter to the Python bug tracker.  
Thanks!
