Tk is a rapid application GUI toolkit used by Tcl, Perl, and Python. The Tk release allows script developers to run existing GUI applications with a native Aqua look and feel directly on Mac OS X v10.1. As part of Apple's ongoing commitment to Open Source, this port has been released under a BSD-style license. Apple's changes have been and will continue to be submitted to the main Tcl/Tk CVS repository at tcl.sourceforge.net. > -----Original Message----- > From: Nguon Hao Ching [mailto:hao@netaxs.com] > Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2001 11:16 AM > To: phl@lists.pm.org > Subject: Qt/Mac for Mac OS X (fwd) > > > I think some of you might be interested in this.
