- jffhn 7y agoTk is great indeed. I actually started programming with it, and loved it (I don't remember encountering any glitch with it, things just worked as you say). But it has its limits. I want something more powerful (in a typed programming language capable of efficient data manipulations, rather than a text-based scripting language) and flexible (a basic API with the least constraints, not a toolkit with fixed design and implementation choices), etc.
- 7thaccount 7y agoI've recently started adding TCL/Tk to my toolkit with Ashok Nadkarni's fantastic book. It truly has a ton of functionality across multiple platforms with excellent support for Linux and Windows. SQLite is awesome too. I really like building commands too.
