Tcl/Tk extension could be used from Perl using Tcl::Tk available from CPAN, and TkZinc could also be used this way

Your are right and one of our user (Lemort) did it with your holy help if I do not mistake. In fact he even recoded all Tk::Zinc method so that they (transparently) call Tcl::Tk codes. It has been tested successfully with some demos delivered with Tk::Zinc. The main advantage is that an application working on linux is easily ported on windows. Thanks to your work! The wrapper is available here , (now publicly available) or on Intuilab repository.

However, there is still a problem: we are often using together with Tk::Zinc a software bus called Ivy.pm shortly described in a previous discussion 3 days ago in this monastery.

This software bus can be used inside Tk event loop or in its own event loop. But our case, we should integrate it in the Tcl/Tk interpreter. The proper solution could be to use the C version of Ivy (Ivy exists on many languages and systems) and bind it to Tcl/Tk. This doesn't work yet.
