Here's how I did it:
* Install Python
* Install Tcl/Tk 8.3.whatever using installer from Scriptics (or wherever it
is now)
* Install BLT 2.4u from its installer
* Copy the "blt2.4" directory from the Tcl/Tk install to the python21\tcl
directory; I copied the BLT .lib files too (although I don't know if they're
needed)
* Put the BLT DLLs in a system directory (windows\system, say); I've never
had any luck with putting the DLLs in the Python DLL directory

That (or something like it) should work; unfortunately, I'm not at the
machine I did this on, so I may be a little off on some of the steps.

good luck!
