I use pydev and eclipse and must've fat fingered something that screwed up my python environment, but I haven't the slightest clue on how to fix it. I can run my scripts in idle no problem, but I've built them as command line apps. I've tried uninstalling python 3 and reinstalling it to no avail. What did I do, and how can I fix it?

IDLE uses Tkinter. If you don't have Tk installed, just run the
scripts from the terminal or pick a different IDE.
