No, they haven't all given up, but it seems highly unlikely that Perl/Tk will ever be upgraded to a Tcl/Tk version beyond 8.4.5 because the only person who has ever done it is no longer around, and this is a quite complicated task. You may also want to take a look at this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.perl.tk/browse_thread/thread/5b46aee9cb6bbe12/9e8e7b52574df467?#9e8e7b52574df467 Cheers, -Jan _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
