in thread Tcl::Tk - Tie Hash to Tcl Array and assign hash

Thanks Courage. You were right, I had gotten off track. I was developing my new GUI elements in pure embedded TCL. After your comment, I stopped and re-assessed my design, ultimately reworking it to be primarily perl/tk syntax.

However, the understanding of TCL has proved quite helpful.

    I completely agree with all your statements.
    Moreover, if you'll delve into internals of perlTk (without Tcl) you will see more complicated things than just dealing with Tcl syntax, but dealing with Tcl within Tcl::Tk module isn't hard, rather interesting.

    BTW it appeared I needed similar tied hashes recently, so I made them work, at least in a first approximation. You can watch that at CVS http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/tcltkce/#dirlist or wait for next CPAN release, which is hopefully will be within a week.

    Best regards,
