Most of the time, the :mod:`tkinter` is all you really need, but a number
of additional modules are available as well. The Tk interface is located in a
binary module named :mod:`_tkinter`. This module contains the low-level
interface to Tk, and should never be used directly by application programmers.
It is usually a shared library (or DLL), but might in some cases be statically
linked with the Python interpreter.
In addition to the Tk interface module, :mod:`Tkinter` includes a number of
Python modules. The two most important modules are the :mod:`Tkinter` module
itself, and a module called :mod:`Tkconstants`. The former automatically imports
