installed python2.2. Tried starting idle.
This is the error am getting. It was working just fine until i had to remove
it.
Then i re-installed it today. Any idea as to what i s'd be doing to get it
to work.



D:\Python\Tools\idle>python idle.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "idle.py", line 4, in ?
    PyShell.main()
  File "D:\Python\Tools\idle\PyShell.py", line 747, in main
    root = Tk(className="Idle")
  File "D:\Python\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1487, in __init__
    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className)
TclError: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:
    d:/ruby/tcl/lib/tcl8.3 d:/python/lib/tcl8.3 d:/lib/tcl8.3 lib/tcl8.3
lib/tcl8.3/library library ../tcl8.3/library



This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.
