I have thought about rewriting it in a different language, but I
haven't found anything that really appeals. I don't want to go to
C/GTK or C/Qt since that would make it hard to port to Windows and
MacOS AFAIK. Python/Tk would be a possibility, but I have never
learnt python and I'm actually not all that comfortable with having to
do things the object-oriented way.
Any suggestions?
Tcl/Tk does come with a comprehensive set of man pages, usually
installed either in section n or sections 3tcl and 3tk. So you can do
"man string" to find out how to do string manipulations, for instance.
The syntax is quite regular and is explained in the "Tcl" man page.
Paul.
