The Perl/Tk Pocket Reference is a companion volume to Learning Perl/Tk, an O'Reilly Animal Guide. Learning Perl/Tk is a tutorial for Perl/Tk, the extension to Perl for creating graphical user interfaces. With Tk, Perl programs can be window-based rather than command-line based, with buttons, entry fields, listboxes, menus, scrollbars, balloons, tables, dialogs, and more. And Perl/Tk programs run on UNIX and Windows-based computers. This small book is a handy reference guide geared toward the advanced Perl/Tk programmer. Novice Perl/Tk programmers will find that its compact size gives them a global view of Perl/Tk's capabilities; they can then turn to Learning Perl/Tk for details. The Perl/Tk Pocket Reference describes every Perl/Tk graphical element, including general widget and variable information, callbacks, geometry management, bindings, events, and window management, as well as composite widget, font, and image creation and manipulation commands.
Steve has developed insurance and accounting systems, device drivers (plotters, digitizers, multiplexors, and Arpanet IMPs), word processors, text editors, and system analysis, performance, and monitoring tools. With decades of computing experience, he provides high-level programming and consulting on applications, network management and configuration, file backup, data migration, user interfaces, and operating systems from vendors such as Apple, CDC, DEC, HP, IBM, Microsoft, and SGI. Steve currently programs and manages Lehigh's large-scale scientific computing complex, and occasionally writes Tk articles for The Perl Journal.
