Thanks, I think that clears up most of the confusion - definitively seems like Tkx is the way to go, rather than Perl/Tk. Well, unless there are very good alternatives that 'I must not miss'...? Are there no/some/lots of quirks when perlapping something using Tkx? I assume it's a nobrainer, since you're apparently doing it with your tools, but just looking for confirmation... What would you consider the best resources to get started? I see there's a Tkx tutorial, and there are references to using the 'real' Tcl documentation to figure out how to call something from Perl - I have no Tcl background but I assume it shouldn't be very hard. Anything else you know of that would spare me a lot of work - literature, websites with good how-to's? Thanks for your help - my next step is RTFM & hands-on, I guess...:-) ken1 _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list ActivePerl@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
