Version 8 of Tk

Tk_Theme is a package by George Peter Staplin. It's licensed like Tcl. It provides several new widgets that feature XPM image support (theme:frame theme:label & more). It's designed for X systems.

The Malephiso editing system uses Tk_Theme.

There is a forked project of Tk_Theme from Marshall Rose named tkTheme (or was that TkTheme). It uses TEA/autoconf and provides a package that can be used via package require. GPS chose not to use his patches because the TEA configuration failed in OpenBSD.

AK: Is the failed config TEA, or TEA 2 ? If TEA 2, please talk to Jeff Hobbs so that this can be fixed.

There is a small glitch in the Tk_theme distribution. It contains a 'theme:menu.tcl' file and the colon prevents it from being unpacked on Windows. Even if it's intended for X systems, you can't see that file if you're on Windows and that is a glitch.
