The ToolKit is available under Unix/X11 and Windows. The BWidget(s) have a professional look&feel as in other well known Toolkits (Tix or Incr Widget) but the concept is radically different because everything is native so no platform compilation, no compiled extension library are needed. The code is 100% Pure Tcl/Tk. More 30 components : Notebook, PageManager, Tree, PanedWindow, ButtonBox, ScrollView, ComboBox, SpinBox, ListBox, SelectFont, SelectColor, ProgressBare ...

Edit (1999-08-19 00:00:00) MFC views C++ class for embedding Tk The idea of embedding Tk in MFC windows always seemed very enticing but information was sparse and contradictory - on a scale between "very easy" and "not yet possible". The only thing for it was to have a go and lo, it wasn't that hard after all. CTkView is a C++ class which can be used in MFC SDI or MDI applications. An instance of CTkView hosts an embedded Tk toplevel widget and performs some management chores for the widget so that it can size, update and react correctly to Windows events.
