Re: Perl TK books

I want to get into Perl game development, is Perl TK the best way to go about this?

Advanced Perl Programming contains an introduction to Perl/Tk and an implementation of the game Tetris, with discussion.

It may be that working through this example would enable you to determine the suitability of this platform for whatever it is you have in mind.

There was an Oreilly book "Learning Perl/TK" out some time ago. I believe it is out of print however. I did pick up a copy at Amazon.com marketplace for about $7 used. Might be someplace to check out at least. Master Perl/TK looks good. I have a copy however haven't had a chance to read it yet. Still ploughing through "Learning Perl/TK".	[reply]

I believe "Learning Perl/Tk" is a subset of "Mastering Perl/Tk" (which is why "Learning..." is out of print with no further editions and is occasionally found in bargain bins).	[reply]
