[NTLUG:Discuss] Facelift for an old DOS program?

[Alex Coker]

That's good. I have some Tcl/Tk chapters I can review.

What about the EasyGTK? I was reading about it last night and it seems to
be trivial to use. I had never heard of it, but it appears to be a set of
wrappers making calls to  GTK+.

I'd go Tcl/Tk....or use expectTk if the goal is to wrapper a non GUI I/F
with
a GUI.

My two cents,
