Version 2 of How to embed a non-Tk GUI into a Tk frame

Updated 2004-11-24 17:30:52 by lwv

Purpose: to collect tips, suggestions, questions, and examples where developers have written tcl/tk code that wraps around an existing GUI window.

In particular, I'm interested in hearing people talk about doing this under the X Window System.

Has anyone an example, for instance, of embedding perhaps an xterm inside a tcl/tk frame?

Why? Well, perhaps, for example, to have an application to which one could easily add buttons for generating key sequences or command strings, etc.


[Larry, if no one else helps, and I don't otherwise make time for this, e-mail CL. I think I know what you're after.]

Thanks. A developer here is wanting to use something like this and then to set transient wm hints via tk, to get certain behavior characteristics to take place.
