Hi there. I got a fresh installation of Strawberry Perl (v 5.32.1.1) and installed Tk (804.036) and Tk::ExecuteCommand.

When I start this simple test script, I got an error I can't fix. Btw - I'm totally new on perl programming. 

use Tk;
use Tk::ExecuteCommand;

$ec = tkinit()->ExecuteCommand(
     -command    => '',
     -entryWidth => 50,
     -height     => 10,
     -label      => '',
     -text       => 'Execute',
 )->pack;
 $ec->configure(-command => 'C:\\WINdows\\system32\\NOTEPAD.EXE');
 $ec->execute_command;
 $ec->update;

The Error:

bad option "pady": must be -after, -anchor, -before, -expand, -fill, -in, -ipadx, -ipady, -padx, -pady, or -side at C:/Strawberry/perl/site/lib/Tk/Widget.pm line 1217. at C:/Strawberry/perl/site/lib/Tk/Widget.pm line 203

Thanks for your help. Markus
