today i tried to learn Tkinter following this guide, but at the "Quit button" section i found some problems... I will paste the code here:

the application terminates.

TclError: can't find package tile
I really don't know what to do, since i installed ActiveTcl (8.6.x)... It seems like it needs tile but i read it is old and surpassed by ttk...
EDIT: installed active tcl 8.5.x, reinstalled python 2.7, but the error is still there. I found this page and i thought i could get past the error but following the readme coming with tk8.4.20 (drive.google.com/file/d/0B2pedtcO2MfOdkpsWFFlYXVUcVU/view?usp=sharing sorry, i can't add more than two hyperlinks with the reputation i have got) brought me to this error
