tksh is shipped as part of the ksh93 package. It is a merger of tk graphics with ksh93. However, tksh is based on tcl7.6, tk4.2 and it hasn't been updated for several years. It allows callbacks to be written in either ksh93 or tcl. There was another gui extension to ksh93 similar to dtksh that people were using at AT&T several years ago. I don't know what happened to that one and whether it can be made open source or not. David Korn dgk at research.att.com
