Re^3: How do you make Tk look good?

So, what did he say? If he just didn't respond I don't think you can draw any conclusions about how hard it is. (UPDATE: whoops, I see now that you had this in your original post!)

I don't see how you can give up on something you obviously want quite badly without even trying... You might learn something even if you're ultimately not successful. Since the author is already planning to integrate Tile in the future you could ask him how he plans to do it.

Heh. I spent as much time trying to figure out how to make Tile work with Tk as I did learning Tk. I would love to spend more time and I don't want to give up, but I also need to be a realist. I just returned from a two week vacation where I had dozens of helping hands to take care of our two daughters (visited family in Maine). While I am confident that I could eventually get something working, I need to finish the project I am working on. It is a gift for one of those family members that helped give me the time to learn Tk in the first place.

If this sounds like a cop out, please see Breaking The Rules II. That project sat unfinished for more than a year before I found time to get back to it - and even then, I didn't finish it. I just don't have the luxury of fully immersing myself in new things any more, but I don't lose sight of what I want to learn. Eventually, I get to it.
