I just want to note that BLT widgets, with all features, could be used 
in Tcl::Tk  after just one single line of declaring relationship to 
Tcl/Tk, here is complete code example:

use strict;
use Tcl::Tk qw(:perlTk);

my $mw = tkinit;

# declare tabnotebook widgets rules to Tcl::Tk 
$mw->Declare('BLTNoteBook','blt::tabnotebook',-require=>'BLT',-prefix=>'bltnbook');

# Create a tabnotebook widget. 
my $tab = $mw->BLTNoteBook->pack(-fill=>'both');

# The notebook is initially empty.  Insert tabs (pages) into the notebook. 
for my $label (qw{ First Second Third Fourth }) {
    $tab->insert('end', -text=>$label);
}

$tab->tabConfigure(0, -window=>$tab->Label(-text=>'text of label'));

$tab->configure(-tearoff=>'yes');
$tab->focus;

MainLoop;

__END__


besides, BLT allows non-horizontal text.
