Bad title. Bad title!

That said - It Works For Me TM.

use Tk; $bottomFrame = MainWindow->new(); sub display_text { my $txt_summary = $bottomFrame->Scrolled( "Text", -background => 'blue', -foreground => 'white', -height => '1', -takefocus => '0', -width => '40', -scrollbars => 'oe', )->pack(qw(-fill both -ex +pand 1)); open(FH, "cuentos.txt") || die "no Abrio nada"; while (<FH>) { $txt_summary -> Insert($_); } close (FH); $txt_summary->see('end'); return $txt_summary; } display_text(); MainLoop; __END__

Maybe it's context? is it the missing arguments to pack()? what kind of object is $bottomFrame actually? Also, "text" ought to be "Text".

thanks to roboticus for the inspired title
