Mastering Perl/Tk

Intermediate - Advanced Level Users.

Many people think all Perl applications require obscure typed commands. But the Perl/Tk extension for creating graphical user interfaces allows Perl programs to be window-based rather than command-line based, making business applications more familiar and easier to use.

Perl/Tk programmers can build graphical event-driven applications for both Microsoft Windows and Unix. Beginners and seasoned Perl/Tk programmers alike will find this to be the definitive book on creating graphical user interfaces with Perl/Tk.

After a fast-moving tutorial, the book goes into detail on creating custom widgets, working with bindings and callbacks, IPC techniques, and examples using many of the non-standard add-on widgets for Perl/Tk (including Tix widgets). Every Perl/Tk programmer will need this book.
