yep, i got that tcl/tk installed too, looks VERY interesting... (and simple) i used specTcl for gui design... (capable for code 2) i got vctl too but havent tested it yet... (i just wanted to do a GUI and specTcl is VERY easy on that)
i used notepad to edit pd.tk (to test my new font)
yep, i'm gonna learn this tcl/tk too, with my moderate pascal&lingo knowledge it shouldn be so hard...

Hello there :)
Good idea Andre,.. I'm not a coder myself but got interested,..so went researching,.. What i've found so far is that the gui is made in tcl/tk.. After discovering that, thanks to this list :) Went out on the web, there is so much out there regarding tcl and tk. Found also a little tcl/tk application vtcl, see my previous post for dl link. Vtcl is quiet handy, you cant edited the pd.tk or u_main.tk file in it, but you can use it to produce example code. So far i'm able to change the canvas bg color, menu items(language,font,colors etc) Still some stuff i havent found like,..the boxes, and cords,..they must be in there,,..or not..?:) Have a look in your bin folder for pd.tk and n your src folder for
u_main.tk
Anyway this way of working for a newbie is really great as you can change things without compiling you just edit those tk files in an editor and save ,...that's it. It's a great way to make gui's,..love it:) Let me know how it goes Andre,..and if anyone out there has interestng
tips
or comments or want to correct my dabling please, please do so..Merci :) ok...back to thinkering with the gui :)(hello ben:)
