[ x] I use the latest release of atbswp
[ x] The issue is not existing yet

Operating System

Manjaro Linux

Desktop Environment/Window Manager

XFCE

Python version

3.9.1

Description

I have ran README suggested installation commands:

git clone https://github.com/RMPR/atbswp.git && cd atbswp
python3 -m pip install pyautogui pynput --user
python3 atbswp/atbswp.py

"NOTE: You must install tkinter on Linux to use MouseInfo. Run the following: sudo apt-get install python3-tk python3-dev"

$ pamac search -a python-tk

python-tkfontchooser 2.0.2-1 AUR
python-tkfilebrowser 2.3.2-2 AUR
python-tkencfs-git 0.9.r8.g081e649-1 AUR
python-tkcolorpicker 2.1.3-1 AUR
python-tkcalendar 1.6.1-1 AUR

regarding python3-dev i have found “python-devtools” so i have tried to install only python-devtools (i do not know which *tk package is right one) and the result is “A failure occurred in check(). AssertionError”

Please which packages i need to install on Arch/Manjaro? What to search in package manager?...

Per this[0], it seems that the tkinter package is simply named "tk" instead of "python3-tk" so: ``` sudo pacman -S tk ``` Should solve your problem. Also, there are some prebuilt executables here[1] so you don't have to wrestle with libraries installation, and that's what I meant by:

- [ x] I use the latest release of atbswp

Finally, I can accept a PR where you update the Readme with the install instructions for your distribution if you feel like it. Thanks. 0: https://coffeecode7.wordpress.com/20117/10/31/installing-tkinter-in-manjaroarch-linux/ 1: https://github.com/RMPR/atbswp/releases/tag/v0.2

sudo pacman -S tk
worked, but it then "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'wx'"

$ sudo pacman -Ss wx
extra/wxgtk-common 3.0.5.1-2 [installed]
    Common libraries and headers for wxgtk2 and wxgtk3
extra/wxgtk2 3.0.5.1-2 [installed]
    GTK+2 implementation of wxWidgets API for GUI
extra/wxgtk3 3.0.5.1-2 [installed]
    GTK+3 implementation of wxWidgets API for GUI
extra/wxmaxima 21.01.0-1

community/wxsvg 1.5.22-2

sudo pacman -S python-wxpython
installed "python-wxpython-4.0.7.2-5-x86_64"

and "python3 atbswp/atbswp.py" is now launching the app without problem. 👍

ANOTHER APPROACH is as mentioned, download latest *-linux file from https://github.com/RMPR/atbswp/releases/latest , set execute permission and it also launched without problem.
