All references to Tcl have been replaced by calls to Perl interpreters. See the source distribution itself for details of additional widgets available. Significant portions from Tix and Img have been ported as well, for instance. The newest version depends on perl 5.004_04 and Tk 8.0.3 . It at least builds on Unix and Windows NT platforms (maybe others). An active mailing list (and gatewayed) USENET newsgroup are available for assistance. Commonly referred to as perl/Tk or pTk, and known as TKML in the Perl 5 Modules FAQ. By telling the perl CPAN interface to install Bundle::Tk, you should get this package and all of its dependencies built and installed. This distribution has a number of sample programs to demonstrate the module. For instance, there is pfm, a perl tk file-manager like interface to emacs, ptknews (a GUI perl newsreader), tkpsh (the perl/tk equivalent to wish), toyedit (a text widget editor), browse (simple file browser front end to emacs), color_editor (frontend to Tk::ColorEditor), ixset (perl GUI interface to xset), pgs (perl/tk frontend to Ghostscript), rmt (remote control application), rolodex (a perl tk interface to notes), timer (a seconds based timer), tkpod (perl/Tk GUI pod viewer), and tkweb (a perl/Tk demo of doing WWW browsing). Also includes a tcl2perl perl script which is not foolproof but is a good start if you expect to do hand tweaking as well. The csiro.au ftp site had a precompiled version of Perl 5.003/Tk b12 for RedHat 3.0.3 for Linux (perhaps newer is available now).
