Use system default icons in Tkinter and Python3

Question

I want to use the systems default icons for known task (copy, cut, paste, filenew, fileopen, exit, help, ...). This depends on the current used icon set in the desktop environment and/or on the used operating system.

Does Python offer a plattform independed way to get such icons?

Here is some Tkinter-based pseudocode

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
from PIL import *

root = Tk()

image = image.open(DEFAULT_COPY_ICON)
image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)

button = Button(master=root, text='Copy', image=image))

root.mainloop()

Answer 1

Python3 or Tkinter does not offer a way for this.
