Tk is a GUI (graphical user-interface) library for the Tcl language. Normally, Tk is controlled from Tcl. The purpose of the CamlTk interface is to provide a Caml library to control Tk from Caml programs. Thus, Tk can be used to program user-interfaces in Caml without knowledge of the Tcl language.

Status

Tcl7.3/Tk3.6
This version is not supported anymore. It is still included in the contrib directory of the Caml Light 0.71 unix distribution.
Tcl7.4/Tk4.0
The distribution is available by anonymous FTP. There are two versions: The online manual (HTML) is here. The documentation is also available in DVI and Postscript and HTML format in the camltk ftp directory.
Tcl7.5/Tk4.1 or Tcl7.6/Tk4.2
ocamltk41 (more precisely ocamltk41-R106) is now available for Objective Caml 1.06. It is included in all binary distributions of OCaml 1.06, including the Windows 95/NT distribution. The source distribution is available by anonymous FTP
Note: although the file is labeled "106", it works with Objective Caml 1.07.
There is no plan yet for supporting Tcl7.5/Tk4.1 or Tcl7.6/Tk4.2 under Caml Light.
Tcl/Tk 8.0
ocamltk41 (more precisely ocamltk41-R200) is now available for Objective Caml 2.00. Ocamltk is no longer included in the standard distribution of the Objective Caml compiler. You must download it separately on the anonymous FTP. This version now supports Tcl/Tk8.0.
