Thanks! I tried to set tk in with
dev-lang/python tcltk in add a line to /etc/portage/package.uses:
this did not work!
I found this on another thread.
This did work:
* USE="tk" in /etc/make.conf
# Recompile python
emerge --newuse python
I'm ready for the turtle. I'd like to do some recursive designs to model recursion!
Thanks,
cwc

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Tkinter suggests that you can either put dev-lang/python tk in package.use
or
emerge dev-lang/tk. The latter doesn't work.
