Hi Kevin,
The binding for Tkx is much more efficient than Tkinter, and does allow for 2
way communication and command binding in the interface.
Alexander noted you have ::perl::Eval in Tcl, but there are more ways to bind
the 2 pieces together. I would recommend looking at the code for ppm in
ActivePerl, which uses Tkx in various elaborate ways (blending Tcl and Perl in
interesting ways), for lots of good code examples. See
/usr/local/ActivePerl-<ver>/bin/ppm
/usr/local/ActivePerl-<ver>/lib/ActivePerl/PPM/*
Note that ActivePerl uses Tkx via tkkits (baseballs with extended
functionality). These can be extended (see archives of this list), but you can
use external packages as needed.

Jeff,
Thanks to you and Alexander for this advice: it appears that I can
safely integrate Tcl's AppleEvent package with Tkx given the mechanisms
you describe. Awesome.
Thanks,
Kevin
