Some years I'd looked at using Tkinter via C. This is the one bundled 
with Python, and it ought to have been usable directly from C, but no 
one here seemed to know exactly how.

It turned out that Tkinter only runs on top of TCL, and using it 
required incorporating the entire TCL interpreter. That involved writing 
main() so that it was running TCL in some sort of event loop, during 
which, if you were lucky, it would deign to allow you to run your actual 
program!

Talk about the tail wagging the dog...
