If you were going to teach someone to program in Tk, where would you start?

   * [The Hello World program as implemented in Tcl/Tk]
   * Someone else has written [Show me an example], that takes the Hello World program farther.
   * [Some common mistakes when programming in Tcl/Tk]
   * [Tcl/Tk Template Applications] has a template for a basic Tk application.
   * [Event programming and why it is relevant to Tcl/Tk programming]
   * [Widgets in the initial Tk package]
   * [Bindings and why they are important]
   * [Writing Tk programs so that the user can extend or interact with them without modifying the application]
   * [How does one change the font in the wish widgets]?
