I played with it when I had Windows but it seemed to e tied to a 
specific version of Python. Has that changed?

Can you elaborate on that? I have no idea what you mean?
You can run a tkinter program on a server and display it on your local 
PC using X, but that has nothing to do with Pyscripter? And not much to 
do with tkinter for that matter! I assume you mean something else?

I seem to recall it was written in Borland's Delphi.
There is FreePascal which is very Delphi like, although not quite a 
clone, it might be possible to port it to FreePascal if somebody was 
keen enough!
