I really like Perl/Tk, but have come to the opinion that it's DOA. I think Tcl::Tk and Tkx are better solutions. Assume I drop Perl/Tk. Is the "most supported" route to go with Tcl::Tk (which hasn't been updated since 2007, and whose author seemingly ...

The difference is in the API they present to Perl .
Under the hood both Tcl::Tk and Tkx use the Tcl module as a bridge to Tcl/Tk.
Win32 and this was about 5 years ago.

I'm now in love with Tcl/Tk because of the flexibility and easy way to do the things, but I like to learn by books, then I want some book recommendation to learn.

These are probably the two best out there, I own both of them, and they are both pretty much equally useful, though the former's 2nd edition was published just last year, and the latter back in 2003 .

Can anyone give a nice example with a button and a text widget. When the button is pressed should a shell command be executed and the output piped to the text widget.
If you have other nice and clean examples...

With the following Tcl script, the entry widget will not accept input. It appears but is unresponsive.

I've got a Tcl/Tk window with an entry box in which I'd like to force upper case character entry. That is, if any letters are typed I'd like them to appear in upper case in the entry field, instead of simply rejecting any lowercase input.
I've looked ...

However you can turn it back on afterwards:
entry .message -validate key -validatecommand { .message insert %i [string... .

For this example I'll assume you're creating an application for the same platform you are running on .
You also need a "basekit", the executable that will be wrapped with your tcl code .

I'm using TkCVS as the GUI front-end for a CYGWIN CVS client, on a Windows XP machine. It's a good compromise, since on my Linux machine I'm also running TkCVS (the same machine running the CVS server, BTW...).
