The differences in stability and feature set of the IDEs on Windows and Linux was also an issue. As a result, we looked at other options, including Python.

If you already have a Tcl/Tk installation, this wastes some disk space (about 4 Megs) but avoids problems with conflicting Tcl/Tk installations, and makes it much easier for Python to ensure that Tcl/Tk can find all its files.
