Thanks Vadim for you quick reply.
I want to plot data I have generated. I can extract the data using perl
since I know perl. I dont want to learn Tcl just to extract data so I
can then plot it.

Thank you for your report, Indeed, there are items to fix, I'll do my

I've tried repeatedly to install TCL::Tk. I want to use BLT.
BTW Tcl::Tk is pure-perl, but - indeed - its better to have clean install
rather than 'force' option.
Yet, for using BLT Tcl::Tk isn't necessary, you can use BLT with just Tcl.pm
module or Tkx,
Like this:
$interp->Eval(<<'EOS');
# tcl/tk code here
package require Blt
pack [text .t]
# etc etc etc
EOS
I could figure most of this out. But what I dont know is how to populate
data structures in Perl that can be used in Tcl.
What I need BLT is to created stacked barcharts. It seems that the only
software to do this is GD, BLT and WXfreechart.
My solution so far is to generate GD images and then use Tk to display them.
However if you're planning to use BLT with perl/Tk syntax - then Tcl::Tk is
indeed needed.
Cool, actually the Tcl CPAN module is the crucial point as a
perl-to-tcl/tk bridge.
CPAN.pm: Building V/VK/VKON/Tcl-Tk-1.04.tar.gz
....
t/text.t ........ can't find package widget::scrolledwindow at

This message means that your tcl/tk installation should also have snit2 or snit,
because $widget->Scrolled(...) is implemented used 'snit'.
I will try to figure out on best way to check this and then give to user useful
message.
For now - just install 'snit2' into your tcl/tk.
Best regards, Vadim.
