forks and Tk minimizing

batkins has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

two mostly unrelated questions follow:

1. how do i share variables using the new forks module on CPAN? the docs say that the "shared" attribute doesn't work....

2. how do i programmatically minimize a Tk window?

thanks, monks!

I think `$win->iconify` is better, cause you can get the widget back by `$win->deiconify` `----------------------------------- --the good, the bad and the physi-- -----------------------------------` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
