RBC is:

  • BLT's vector, graph, barchart, stripchart, winop, and eps components
  • TEA compliant
  • 3800+ automated test suite, plus many more manual tests
  • Works (for me) on win32, linux 32 bit and linux 64 bit, Tcl/Tk 8.4,8.5, and 8.6beta.

RBC is not (yet):

  • documented
  • experienced
  • beautiful (see pkgIndex.tcl for an example)
  • free from Tcl/Tk internals
  • including Zoom-Stack
  • tested with starkits

Replace BLT with RBC

Replace

package require BLT
namespace import blt::*

with

package require rbc
namespace import rbc::*

The rest should work. This procedure was tested with BLT - stripchart - with realtime update. Of course, you need to append the path to the rbc package for this to work. So something like this should be in your tcl file.

lappend auto_path <path-to-your-rbc-files>
