Hi Everyone
I was tinkering with Tash again today.
It has code like this:
Tcl.Tk.Ada.Pack (Counter, "-side bottom -fill both");
This calls the geometry manger to control the layout of the widget Counter.
In pure Tcl it is:
pack .counter -side bottom -fill both
Tash is about 20K lines of code(in the src dir). There are some examples and it's not a bad project or anything. It's just that since Tcl/Tk changed it's API, it's a pretty thin binding.
I was wondering if it would be logical to create a thick binding to Tcl only and feed in Tcl strings to display Tk widgets rather then trying to bind the Tk code as well.
I frequently go on coding suicide missions, Am I on another? Does this sound logical?
Thanks-Patrick
