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.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly a Python fan, but when you see a Tk directory inside of the python directory you kinda expect... Well Python. And yeah, I get that Tk came from TCL, but if I had to write a TCL to use Tk, I'd forget TK existed and...

And where are you seeing Tcl examples? Are you looking at a Tcl library supplied with Python perhaps?

For this example I'll assume you're creating; myapp.vfs/main.tcl package require Tk label .l -text "Hello, world" pack .l ^D % ls myapp.vfs.

I've begun prototyping a desktop app with Tcl and intend to present the idea to some venture capitalists. Neither desktop apps nor Tcl are in vogue and so I want to be prepared to counter any objections to this technology. Below are the pros as I see ...

It's not perfect order.
One, it's pretty easy to develop working prototypes in very short nature of your program it's hard to say why Tcl/Tk might be the right solution for you.

Tcl/Tk is a simple way to script small GUIs.
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.

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.

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

A software install failed because it couldn't find the Tcl or Tk file(s) in any .../include directories.
Is there anything I can do about that? I already installed the standard Tcl/Tk package with netpkg.
