in reply to Perl Tcl::TK GUI questions

As you can see I've commented out lot's of non working code I'm trying to get working.

The trick to learning tk is to write twenty programs that are each at most twenty lines long, so you're always dealing with at most one single question/issue

    Another trick, copy/paste your actual program that runs, copy/paste from a text editor not from a browser or other thing that messes up newlines and whitespace

    Great advice. That's what's I've done here, small building blocks that I've put together but I still have a few broken pieces. I've tried to tackle them all separately before but will take your advise and start with the file menu piece by itself again. Thanks
