Perl5's Tk binding is based on older Tk verion, so I, personally, prefer using more up-to-date Tcl/Tk via Tcl::Tk. But my personal preferences left aside, and returning to more general question, what is most preferable way for *any* C library binding? Is it via Perl5 currently? (look at Tcl/Tk like ordinary C library) Any chances on using Haskel's C support? Parrot? PS. As long as Tcl::Tk is much more lightweight compared to perlTk, it could require less work on adopting it, anyway... Best regards, Vadim.
