Its a tkx bug plain and simple

See Tcl::Tk, this works

#!/usr/bin/perl -- use strict; use warnings; Main( @ARGV ); exit( 0 ); sub Main { Fudge(); Fudge(); } sub Fudge { use Tcl::Tk; my $int = new Tcl::Tk; my $mw = $int->mainwindow; my $lab = $mw->Label(-text => "Hello world")->pack; my $btn = $mw->Button(-text => "test", -command => sub { $lab->configure(-text=>"[". $lab->cget('-text')."]"); })->pack; $int->MainLoop; }

Why this works? Because each $int Tcl::Tk is a new Tcl interpreter

Why the same doesn't work with Tkx? Because Tkx creates a single Tcl interpreter, and when it ends, that's it, it ends

You can patch Tkx.pm, its pure-perl, but this is a bug in Tkx
