NAME Tcl::pTk - Interface to Tcl/Tk with Perl/Tk compatible syntax DESCRIPTION The Tcl::pTk extension (not to be confused with the "native" perl5 Perl/Tk extension) provides a complete interface to the whole of Tk via the Tcl extension. It has full perl/tk compatible syntax for running existing perl/tk scripts, as well as direct-tcl syntax for using any other Tcl/Tk features. See the POD documentation for more details. Build in the usual way for a perl extension: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install 1. Tweak Makefile.PL is necessary only if your Tcl or Tk include files could not be found automatically by Makefile.PL script. Normally you just make sure you have right tcl/tk in your path at a moment of running Makefile.PL script. 2. perl Makefile.PL make make install In some rare cases you may want to pass some parameters to Makefile.PL, but usually defaults are good. You can see some explanations on these parameters with perl Makefile.PL --help See License, Authors sections in Tcl/pTk.pm, or with 'perldoc Tcl::pTk' - once it is installed - to have acknowledged on this type of information.
