[ltk-user] Cross platform distribution?
by Joshua Kordani 17 Dec '13

17 Dec '13

Greetings all, I've been very interested in locating an easy to distribute, cross platform gui library that will allow for gui development in common lisp. After finding out about tclkits and seeing how small they are, I get the impression that this goal is reachable via distribution of the platform specific tclkit along with a common lisp image (with ltk configured to locate the supplied tclkit). I didn't find an archive of this list, and from what I've read in ltk docs, it seems like this concept is easily supported, but I am rather new to common lisp and tcl/tk. Given that I am new to common lisp, I don't necessarily know what part of the ltk code I need to read in order to figure out how to invoke a local instance of tcl/tk (let alone make a connection to a remote-tcl). I am open to anything, if someone has walked this path before and knows of some documentation that might be illuminating, I'm all ears. In addition, if anyone has any suggestions about how I might go about this whole cross platform gui common lisp development effort more easily, I'm also all ears. My short term goal is to produce enough material to run the ltkdemo (or at least, my own hello world code) from a lisp image that references a supplied tclkit on at least osx and windows. Cheers! -- Joshua Kordani LSA Autonomy

[ltk-user] No dialog-box in ltk?
by Josef Wolf 16 Dec '13

Hello, I can't find the dialog widget in ltk. I can find message-box, ask-yesno, ask-okcancel and do-msg. But I can't find a dialog box where I can put e.g an entry to ask the user for additional information. Am I missing something? Any hints? -- Josef Wolf jw(a)raven.inka.de

[ltk-user] Is this alive?
by Jason Miller 12 Dec '13

The web archives for 2013 don't seem to be working; is this list alive? Is LTK being developed? After finding 2 different TCL quoting bugs, I rewrote the quoting layer in my local copy. Is there any interest in incorporating that into the official version? -Jason
