Readme for python-tix.tar.gz
-------------------------
	python-tix is a patch to Tkinter.py and related files that
allows one to use the Tix widget set from Python in the same way that
the Tk toolkit is currently usable.  

	The Tix widget set provides a number of useful additions to
the widgets in Tk, including widgets such as a Notebook widget and a
FileSelectBox widget. All in all, there are about twenty widgets in
the set. There's more information at

	http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~ioi/tix/tix.html

	This is known to work with tcl7.4, tk4.0, python1.3, and
Tix4.0b4, but it should work on versions higher than this as well as
long as the Tcl and Tk versions used are compatible. It has been
tested on Irix, SunOS, and Linux 1.2.8.

	There isn't really anything machine dependent in here, so it
should work Ok on most platforms. If you have a succesful installation
on another platform or with a different combination of versions of
Tcl, Tk, Tix, and Python, please mail me at jmp7d@virginia.edu so that
I can add it to this list.

	To use it, unpack python-tix.tar in the same directory as the
python distribution and read the README file inside the python-tix
directory. 

	For example, if the python source is in /usr/src, you might
type:
	
	cp python-tix.tar.gz /usr/src
	cd /usr/src
	gunzip python-tix.tar.gz
	tar -xvf python-tix.tar
	
Please e-mail me with any questions, comments or problems.
