Tkinter & Tkconstants

Hi,
I was reading through the Tkinter tutorial at
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/index.htm ...and
it mentions that by doing,

from Tkinter import *

you have access to the constants in Tkconstants, since Tkinter imports
it automatically.

However, in the shell if I do..

from Tkinter import *

print Tkinter.HORIZONTAL

I get an error..NameError: Tkinter is not defined

any ideas? However, if I do,

import Tkconstants
print Tkconstants.HORIZTONAL

I get what i expect. but according to the tutorial i should only need
Tkinter.

Thanks.

.
