in thread Perl/Tk: For Beginners

Thank you but the links above show how to install/use Perl/Tk. Tk is not in PPM so I really can't use Tk. All I see is Tkx.

Thanks for the info though.

    It certainly appears in PPM on MY machine. At the risk of stating the obvious, have you got the case right?

      Thanks Davies. As I said before I am new at this and I didn't realize you could download modules from PPM in the command prompt. I have been using the 'Perl Package Manager' shortcut on my PC. Thank You for the information. I sound kind of stupid right about now LOL.

      Thank Everybody for the information. I hope to use it in the future.

        Actually, I had no problem finding it in PPM's GUI. I used the command line interface to answer your question because it's possible to transcribe the session into a post and it's not possible to put a screen shot into a post. But that's the advantage of a well-worded question - it can get you answers to questions you didn't realise you might want to ask. So when you write ...

        ... you don't sound it from here. You provided the information the hive mind needed to help you.
