  <p>I have a Mac with Mountain Lion installed on it. I want to dev for Python on it, so I grabbed a Python 3.3 release candidate and started to work with it. However, I was trying to start working with Tkinter graphics, and when I tried this line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from Tkinter import *
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Eclipse (and IDLE) gave me this nasty error</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/venkatsmoorthy/Documents/workspace/Python/python/tkinterGUI/tkinter_1.py" line 7, in &lt;module&gt;
  from Tkinter import *
  ImportError: No module named 'Tkinter'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I don't wan't to downgrade. I am willing to though, but only to 3.2.3. Please don't make me do it.</p>
  
  <p>I did google around, and figured out that OSX has some problem with Tkinter. I tried a few solutions, but no dice. Please answer with your own instructions for how to get tkinter working on python 3.3/3.2.</p>
