You're right, it doesn't work -- Guido and I are looking into why (it's a
mystery so far!).

When that's fixed, note that you should never run a Tkinter app on Windows
with python.exe:  a Tk bug can cause unpredictable system hangs on Win9x
when the app shuts down.  You'll want to use pythonw.exe and idle.pyw
instead.
