in thread Is there a better way to learn Tk?

Do you know what the performance/requirements difference between the two packages is, by any chance? What I can find seems to indicate that Perl/Tk directly wraps the C code for Tk, whereas Tkx wraps Tcl calls Tk. I can't imagine that not causing some performance difference.

    perl/Tk is probably faster, but Tkx is more up to date in terms of features/widgets and will run on perl 5.6.
