You will want to get a copy of TASH from the starting point:
wuarchive.wustl.edu/languages/ada/bindings/tash/tash800.htm

I'd also suggest getting a binary version of Tcl/Tk from Sun, and a
good Tcl/Tk book.  I have just started, but it looks straightforward
and the capability you describe above is present.
