Hello,

I am trying to make a text widget:

(defun hello()
 (with-ltk ()
   (let* ((tx (make-instance 'text )))
     (pack tx))))


But I get an error (here the messages by slime):

too many colons in "07"

 Stream: #<TWO-WAY-STREAM
           :INPUT-STREAM #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "descriptor 16" {1005CE4193}>
           :OUTPUT-STREAM #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "descriptor 9" {1005CE45B3}>>
  [Condition of type SB-INT:SIMPLE-READER-ERROR]


I found a solution.

The error is caused by a message from wish in reply to the creation of a text widget.

The message is described here

I reinstalled TCL/TK to Tcl 9.0a2 & Tk 9.0a2 (on macOS Catalina 10.15.6), and the message is gone, so is my error ;-)
