Thanks, I guess. Yes, I tried it on fedora just now and the popup thingy worked..but there were other issues, some garbage "noise" graphics appeared under the button text..maybe some KDE issue, whatever, cos it really doesn't help me since I'm on win32 (perl5.8.7|Tk804.027)..

I don't know how many times things like this have happend to me with Tk. I have to stop, bang my head against the wall and start reinventing the wheel to get something that should be working to work..in some roundabout way..and I'm starting to get oh so tired of it..

I love Tk, I really do, but I think it might be time to move on to something else soon. The "RAD factor" is not that huge with Tk when things are broken all the time. Endof rant. (tired).
