Yeah... I sort of figured it wouldn't be too difficult, however that 
still leaves me out in the cold with my personal library of Perl/Tk 
megawidgets. You noted before that you don't have a large mega widget 
library.  Well, I do ;-)  I've got to admit there are some widget 
collections in Tcl/Tk that impress me -- tiles (changing themes was 
fairly impressive on windows), blt, and one or two from BWidgets, but  
not  nearly enough for me to throw out my personal widget collection.

I prefer my widgets written in Perl or C/C++, so that I can easily 
modify them if I need to to fit my own needs.  Having a ready made 
library coded in Tcl may have its advantages, but it isn't very 
attractive to me at this time, because it doesn't give me anything that 
I really need right now and currently looks like it takes things away.  
Who knows? Maybe that will change with time. I'm sure there are others 
where this isn't as big a deal.

By the way, that single line *is* a little ugly. You might want to find 
some way of changing it so that it more closely resembles a perlish way 
of using external libraries. Perhaps a module called Tcl::Tk::Library or 
something that would take parameters similar to those you used.

Maybe something like:

use Tcl::Tk;
use Tcl::Tk::Library  ** arguments**

Just my .02,
