A good guide to ruby-tcl\tk

Hi,

is there a good guide to ruby-tcl\tk online?
I found some sites for perl, but really do not like the idea of learning
perl to code ruby :slight_smile:

greetings, BXS

ironic but the best guide to ruby-tcl\tk online IMO … is the perl/tk guide (so far)

  • read the perl tk book - it really is useful
  • read all the online tutorials (google for them, there are 4 or 5)
  • fire up the demos and read the source
  • post further questions to this group

as i program i keep the demos open and this page too

http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TkCmd/contents.htm

the ruby/tk lib is rather complete - if you find something here it’s in the
ruby - just post if you can’t figure out where…

using this approach i was able to create a fairly sophisticated ruby-tk app
having never programed perl-tk or tcl-tk or ruby-tk

sounds worse than it is - trust me!

There’s a pretty good Ruby/Tk tutorial here:
http://httpd.chello.nl/k.vangelder/ruby/learntk/

There’s a Ruby/Tk FAQ here:

There are some Ruby/Tk demos here:

Finally, there is a chapter on Tk in the Pickaxe book:

Hi,

thanks to you all. Being more of the lazy type, I will first try to use
the ruby links and then have a look at the perl stuff :slight_smile:
