in reply to Perl/tk error I can't figure out
I would suggest learning gtk-perl as well. It may look intimidating, but I find that it's api is more intuitive and easier to use. Gtk has a number features that Tk doesn't, and you will probably find that you want to use them as your gui programs grow more complex. Gtk also has a more modern, polished look to it. I'm not trying to knock Tk, it is a powerful toolkit, but I find that Gtk is much more rewarding.

Yeah I think now that I've got the basics of perl down alot better Gtk really isn't as bad as I thought it was when I first looked at it. So far I've seen some examples already of really neat features that I'll have to find some sort of use for!
I use KDE so my other original reason for being inclined to stay away from Gtk was that I like to have a unified look across all my apps. Thanks to the gtk theme engine for qt Gtk apps now look great so I think I'll be sticking with the Gtk for now!
Thanks everyone | [reply] |
