This practical, hands-on introduction to the TCL scripting language and the use of TK X Windows toolkit introduces both fundamental and advanced concepts of TCL and TK through numerous working examples.

Practical Programming in Tcl and Tk, according to its preface, is intended for both novices and experts. However, in practice, novices who are not familiar with a C-like language or Unix shell programming will find the going difficult. The book is divided into six parts: Tcl basics, advanced Tcl, Tk basics, Tk widgets, Tk details, and Tcl and C. The included CD-ROM contains Tcl and Tk versions for Windows 95, 3.1, and NT, as well as for Unix and Macintosh. The original version of this book was based on Tcl 7.4 and Tk 4.0. This second edition has been updated to cover changes in Tcl 7.4 and Tk 4.0, Tcl 7.5 and Tk 4.1, Tcl 7.6 and Tk 4.2, and Tcl/Tk 8.0. If you need information about the most recent additions to Tcl/Tk, such as Safe-Tcl, then this is the book for you.
