Yes, the sample program works with Tix8.4.3.

The procedure to rebuild Tix was removed from PCBuild/readme.txt, and
the instructions in the 2.5 version are incomplete.  Here is what I did,
after several attempts:

- downloaded and extracted following file:
http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tix/Tix8.4.3-src.tar.gz

- created file win32/python.mak with the content:
TCL_MAJOR=8
TCL_MINOR=5
TCL_PATCH=2
INSTALL_DIR=..\..\tcltk
TOOLS32=$(VCINSTALLDIR)
MKDIR=md
RMDIR=rd
!include "makefile.vc"

- then "cd Tix8.4.3\win", and compile with:
nmake -f python.mak TK_DIR=..\..\tk-8.5.2.0 TCL_DIR=..\..\tcl-8.5.2.1
TK_TMPDIR=Release_VC8 TCL_TMPDIR=Release_VC8 install

What is the procedure to have this new version merged into the msi file?
