I accidentally used a bit of syntax in TUI 1.6 that requires Python  
2.5. I will release a new version that supports Python 2.4 when I have  
a chance.

Meanwhile, if you have Python 2.5 or are willing to upgrade then you  
can use TUI 1.6. If not, please wait to upgrade.

Note that I do not intend to support Python 2.4 for much longer.  
Python 2.5 has been out for a long time and Python 2.6 is current*.  
Upgrading your Python is a good idea in any case because Python 2.5  
and 2.6 are significantly faster than 2.4.

*Python 3.1 is also current, but is a different language branch. I  
have no plans to switch until 3.x becomes mainstream.
