Re: TK font control Linux Windows

Since you're sharing code and not asking a question, I've moved this to CUFP. I salute your cross-platform tenacity. I'd have given up and spit out HTML years ago...

HTML vs TK? Are you using HTML as an interactive user interface? I have switched much of my reporting to HTML, but not the control and editing. I ask this as I have already commissioned someone to start working on a chromium based JavaScript interface to work around the turtle like speed of the TK Hlist widget. the problem is it takes me out of the development path since its a big learning curve	[reply]

Javascript isn't the only option for HTML - there's also WebPerl. See: Run Perl 5 in the Browser!.	[reply]

Thanks for the idea... Sounds like a neat idea, I looked at the windows demo in Chrome, but when I tried to load the same page in FireFox on Centos6 it didn't work (said Perl was not ready) Seems a little too experimental to port my rather large code base to.	[reply]
