Possible Duplicate:
ImportError when importing Tkinter in Python

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:

from Tkinter import *

Eclipse (and IDLE) gave me this nasty error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/venkatsmoorthy/Documents/workspace/Python/python/tkinterGUI/tkinter_1.py" line 7, in <module>
from Tkinter import *
ImportError: No module named 'Tkinter'

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.

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.

    Python 3 calls it tkinter not Tkinter.
