Q : I'm looking for some hints as to how to get Tkinter on Macs to work.

Yeah, that's basically it. Here's what worked for me using 1.5.2:
1. Download MacTk 8.3.1, unstuff.
2. "Tool Command Language (PPC)" into the "Tool Command Language" folder, and copy that into the Extensions folder.
3. Add the path to the Tkinter.py module, $Python:Lib:lib-tk
4. Put the MacTk 8.3.1 folder in the Python folder
