Yes, I got the Python 2.7 (and 3.2) distributions from python.org and I also got Tcl/Tk per their directions. I still have all the old Apple installed stuff too plus some older Tcl/Tk.
Doesn't matplotlib use Tk (Tkinter) to do its graphs and what-not? I also have at least two different versions of Tcl/Tk (8.5.7 and 8.5.12) and I'm wondering if that may not be causing problems.
I'll give that bash script a try.
Thanks,
eric
