Now that you mention it, I still have a question about this TkWidgets
library.
Is it maybe possible to implement a way to turn off the Tk dependent
parts when building VTK with Python wrapping? (this only affects the
widgets, right?)
For our project we are using wxPython and thus don't need the Tk
Widgets. It is kind of annoying to have to install Tk on all our
development systems (both Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X machines) just
so we can build our application.
Best regards,
Sander
