Graphical Applications With Tcl and Tk

Eric Feral Johnson, Eric Foster-Johnson · 1996

From the Publisher: Tcl, the Tool Command Language, has captured the hearts and minds of tens of thousands of software developers worldwide. It's an easy-to-learn scripting language that runs under Windows, UNIX, and Macintosh. Best of all, it's free. An associated toolkit caled Tk allows you to quickly create graphical applications that can run on multiple platforms without delving into arcane subjects like Win32, QuickDraw, Object Linking and Embedding, Motif, and the X Tolkit Intrinsics. With a surprisingly small amount of code you'll soon be creating cross-platform graphical applications. Graphical Applications with Tcl and Tk will teach you the basics of the syntax and show you how to start writing menus, opening dialog boxes, and loading GIF images. With a focus on portable cross-platform scripts, user interface style guides, and clear, practical examples, this book allows you to get the most out of Tcl/Tk.
