Hello Hanno,

The only reason TkAgg is hard-wired into PyMC is that it was a better  
default than WxAgg, since Tkinter is easy to install on most systems  
(unlike WXpython), and even comes built in to some python  
distributions, like ActiveState. There should be no problem in  
choosing another backend.

Good luck,
Chris
