Hello all ! Now is the time for another PureTkGUI release. After one
month and a half of hard work in my own free time, v0.9.0 is finally
out. It brings a *lot* of new features.

Here are the highlights :
- Virtually any widget is supported thanks to the WDF (Widget
Definition File) concept;
- Tk, ttk, Tix, Iwidgets, BWidgets WDF provided ;
- Widget's name can now be chosen ;
- Unlimited undo / redo ;
- Code generation & PureTkGUI settings dialogs added.

PureTkGUI is available at SourceForge : http://sourceforge.net/projects/puretkgui/

See file CHANGES inside the delivered zip file for more information.

As a sidenote, if this work is valuable to you and you want it to be
pushed forward faster, donations will be your best friend and a good
incentive for me to invest even more of my limited free time and
publish my work here.

Enjoy !

Thomas

how is this different from tk itself?

Hi Gavino,

I *only* looked on the web-side and would answer the following:

It is a tool to build tk interfaces and may be used together with tk.
Within this context, I don't understand the question.

Sorry,
Harald

Hello gavino,

"PureTkGUI is not a Tk replacement. PureTkGUI is actually a RAD-type
tool that allows to quickly and efficiently design multi-platform Tcl/
Tk-based GUIs for either rapid GUI-prototyping or full-blown
professional applications."

Put simply, PureTkGUI is a Tcl/Tk script that allows to graphically
build Tcl/Tk apps.

I hope this clears things out.

Thomas.

Yes (I understood that from the initial announcement).

I could have asked:

How is this different from SpecTcl?

(SpecTcl is also pure-script... The answer "SpecTcl is dead"
is quite acceptable.)

Better question, How is this different from GUIBuilder?
(Activestate's update of SpecTcl, which is not dead)

The same question regarding other Tk gui-builders springs
to mind.

I'll try and do a test-drive and post my impressions and
(limited) comparison to SpecTcl.
