I thought I wouldn't need Tkinter. I thought Tkinter is yet another
addon library
Tkinter is the standfard GUI toolkit for Python and as such comes as part
of the
standard library. (Although you do have to compile Python with that option
enabled in some Linux distros)
So I actually need both?
Yes PUIL is for transforming the graphics and creatnf the image object.
Tkinter can then displaty that image object in a GUI.
And this brings me back to my _other_ question which is that
as individuals go about downloading these addon libraries and
their doc, how do you organize this on your computer system?
Most common add-on libraries will install themselves in the
site-packages dirtectory structure under your Python root folder
So they remain fairly well organized.
Some thoird party tools are kist a single python module and you have
to decide where to put it yourselfd. In my case thats usually in
site-packages too.
This does mean that when you upgrade you have to decide which,
if any, of your site-package files to migrate to the new version and
which to re-download. I usually opt for the re-download route just
to be safe.
