There are two links to the Tcl/Tk documentation on tkinter.rst. One of them points to 8.5 man pages.

I suggest to just remove the version suffix "8.6".

Replaces : IMHO, it's important to provide the link of the specific version of Tcl/Tk that Python actually uses. Otherwise, when 8.7 users might read the wrong documentation. Perhaps I didn't get your comment?

Different builds of Python can use different versions of Tcl/Tk (as well as other external libraries). Tkinter supports features added in versions newer than minimal.

Perhaps a comment in the lines of: --- You can find the relevant Tk man pages by checking what version is installed in your system: python -c "import tkinter; print(tkinter.TkVersion)" --- at the top of the page, and then removing all version suffixes as you suggested?

I have updated the PR: * Now we mention that python -m tkinter shows the installed Tcl/Tk version so users can read the right man pages. * Only mention the link to documentation page (sadly, there doesn't seem to exist an "Archived man pages", and mentioning 8.5/8.4 man pages doesn't seem right). * I have merged the two "See also" sections of the page, separating Tkinter-specific documentation from Tcl/Tk general documentation.
