I am using python 3.3 with tkinter, and the package python3-tk is installed. In most docs the old \"import tkFont\" is used, which is not working any more.
from tkinter import *
from time import sleep
window = Tk()
window.geometry("350x400")
window.title("tkinter!")
lbl = Label(window, text="this is a lable", size=12)
lbl.pack()
sleep(1)
lbl.configure(text="now it is a big lable", size=48)
