If you try to piratebay for it, you'll be confounded.If you try to google for ActiveTcl 8.5.18, you'll be confounded.just regular ol Tcl 8.5 and Tk 8.5, you have to install each manually), then you're gonna get super fucking confused trying to figure out where the system files are supposed to go and you're gonna give up after two hours of finicking around /Library/Frameworks If you try to get the 8.5 version that ISN'T "Active" (a.k.a.Silly, it's only available in the $999 Business Package or whatever that they sell you (along with all the other "outdated" versions).If you try to find ActiveTcl 8.5 on that downloads page, you'll be sorely mistaken.If you try to access that given hyperlink, you'll be taken to the ActiveTcl versions downloads page.("ActiveTcl" will include both Tcl and Tk when it installs) In fact, they try to give you a nice hyperlink to "ActiveTcl 8.5"-because this website called ActiveState apparently provides an easy-to-install version of Tcl/Tk, whatever the heck that stuff is.If you visit said link for current information, you'll be told that in order to use Python 3 on Mac you need to have these things called "Tcl/Tk" installed somewhere on your computer- but they have to be specifically the "8.5.18" version of that software, not the most recent 8.6 version.If you open IDLE, bright-eyed and ready to learn, you'll see an error message saying WARNING: The version of Tcl/Tk (8.6.7 ) in use may be unstable.If you try to download Python 3.6.4 from their page, you'll find out that what you actually work on in Python, the "blank canvas," is opened by this application called "IDLE".Let me describe this If-You-Give-A-Mouse-A-Cookie style. I'm using OS X Mavericks 10.9.5, but forums tell me these problem I'm gonna describe happen on a bunch of OS X versions (not sure about the new ones).Īnyway.

I literally haven't even started learning to code past the first introductory chapter of this book i'm reading about it, but I had SUCH A HARD TIME WITH just the INSTALLATION process that I figure I want to share what I did so the next guy who want to start out trying to learn how to code doesn't get completely shut down by annoyance, like I almost did. It's NOT the most recent 8.6 build, but this specific older version is required for using Python 3 on Mac. Tl dr ActiveTcl 8.5.18 can be downloaded here.
