That said, PerlTk didn't use Tcl did it?
If you are referring to http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.028/ -
this also has a full Tcl interpreter, in pTk/mTk, and uses Tcl_Interp
and Tcl_Obj throughout. From the Perl/Tk FAQ (*):
"However, from a Perl perspective, Perl/Tk does not require any
familiarity with Tcl, nor does its installation depend on any Tcl code
apart from that packaged within Perl/Tk."
They also explain
"The pTk code proper is an externally callable Tk toolkit (i.e. a
re-write of the Tk 8.0 code that allows easier external linking &
calling, especially by perl)."
I couldn't quite understand what they mean by that: the sources for
tcl/generic (for example) look fairly unmodified.
