Preface

Perl is a great language for file processing, connecting to databases, and many other tasks that are too tedious to do manually. For many years, however, Perl programs were limited to a command-line interface. The Tk interface changed all that.

The Tk extension to Perl allows you to create graphical interfaces for your programs. Using the modules included with the distribution of Tk, you can create windows with buttons, lists, text, and other types of widgets to help your user navigate within your application.
