Summary: IDLE will not start in Windows98

Initial Comment:
IDLE started the first time, but now will not start. OS is 
Windows98 4.10 (Build 2222). Shows hour glass for a 
couple seconds, then nothing. Python 2.3 is installed in 
directory c:\python23. I have tried uninstalling and 
reinstalling to no effect.

Solution.................
Installing Ruby 1.80-10 and Python2.3 causes a conflict 
between the respective Tcl/Tk libraries.
