Ok, this may be a bit off topic, but why Tk? IMHO, its' ugliness rivals Motif. I mean, it's really really ugly. There are very well maintained perl bindings for Gtk+ and there are (apparently orphaned) perl bindings for qt as well. Both of these are fairly cross platform (ie, win32 + *nix). Both of these are prettier than Tk. WIth Gtk+, you can use Glade to play around and see what types of widget stacking are possible.
I mean, if you want to learn Tk, learn Tk. I'm just making sure you know that there are more modern alternatives that are easier on the eyes....

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
