If you don't think the changes fit your planned direction for the
Tcl::Tk package, I was thinking that another option for the changes is
to be released as a separate package (something like a new Tcl::pTk
package )
What do you think?
I really like this solution - because it was my blue dream and real preference
to have Tcl::Tk module really small - essentially one single PM file.
But your solution has an unfortunate problem, though.
Having yet another perl+tk solution will make people confused.
They will not know what to select between Tkx, perl/Tk, Tcl::Tk and Tcl::pTk.
But if users of this mailing list will see this as no-problem, I will greatly
support this, and even will help you with some eventual patches of your new
module.
I would like to echo my appreciation for John's efforts. I for one
think that Tcl::Tk might be better served to just be "compatible" if
possible. I do understand Vadim's point about nice clean modules, but I
think this one would serve the community best by reducing any possible
confusion.
