Re^4: close (unpost) Tk::Menu widget on mousbutton release

I love to use Linux all the time, but I'm bound to too many apps on win32 that I don't have time to relearn on another platform at the moment.

zentara, u ever work with Tcl::Tk? If so: 1)What do u think about it? 2)Do we have to fiddle around with Tcl-code to get stuff to work? and 3)can we use all widgets from Tcl, for example Tkhtml (looks wonderful)? 4)Does this package have problems with memory leaks? 5)Does it work well on windows?

If u can't answer them, maybe courage can?

Also, anyone know when next release of perl/Tk is arriving? I've hardly seen Nick or Slaven in the Tk newsgroup these last few months?!

I havn't used Tcl/Tk. Since Perl/Tk is derived from Tcl/Tk, I would assume that they are quite similar, except for the Tcl syntax. There is an ongoing argument going on in comp.lang.perl.tk about whether the Perl/Tk is better than Tcl/Tk, the argument being that Tcl is the original source, so there are bound to be glitches in the conversion. The response of course, is that Perl/Tk is better because it's Perl, not Tcl. :-) The releases of Perl/Tk always lag behind the latest release of Tcl/Tk. I think that Tcl already at the 8.5 level(still classified as devel), where Perl/Tk is still at 8.4 Nick and Slaven are always lurking in comp.lang.perl.tk but they are selective in what questions they answer, leaving most simpler stuff to others to answer. They are there. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. flash japh	[reply]

Note that I meant Tcl::Tk, the perl module from CPAN, which is supposed to make it possible to use the Tcl/Tk package with perl/Tk syntax.	[reply]
