[Responding to Roy]
I think actually the one interested in it was Pedro Guillem - if I
understand correctly, Michael Link forwarded his mail on to us at the
rivet-dev list.

[Responding to Pedro]
Anyway, Pedro, Roy's Tk/CGI thing is pretty snazzy, and worth a look,
but I don't think it's complete...and it's by far the best  of that kind
of tool I've seen - I think you'd have to continue his work if you want
to output to the web.

I'm a bit confused as to just what you want, though - you mention PHP/Tk
- that's just a TK binding for PHP so that you can write GUI's with PHP.

Something else that's worth checking out that might be what you need is
this, the Tcl browser plugin:

I'm glad you like Rivet and are happy with it.  Anything you'd like to
do to help out is welcome.  One possibility would be translating the
manual into Castellano, although that's a big effort and is likely to
mean lots of maintainance work too.  The first thing to do in any case
is to get involved by signing up for the rivet-dev mailing list!

Bienvenido, in any case!
