[Tkinter-discuss] How to install jpeg support in Tkinter

[Donald Rozenberg]

Hi,

I am looking for a way to install Img in Windows 10 in such a way that 
the image support particularly for jpegs is available to the Tcl/Tk 
included in Tkinter.

I have written a programming tool called PAGE in Tcl/Tk that is called 
by Tk.eval. That tool would be more effective if it could support jpegs. 
In Linux I can install the package libtk-img and then Tkinter seems able 
to support jpegs.  I don't know how to make a similar installation in 
Windows.

PAGE is a programming tool available from SourceForge and has enjoyed 
50,000 downloads this year. Most of those dowloads are for the windows 
version. Treating PAGE as a Tcl program within a Tkinter wrapper is a 
new idea which greatly simplifies user installation but suffers from the 
disadvantage that users cannot use jpeg images for button widgets, menu 
entries, notebook widgets, etc.. Hence my appeal. I admit that I know 
little about Windows.

Regards,

Don
