Introduction to Tk

The Tk package contains a TCL GUI Toolkit.

Dependencies

Required

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

cd unix &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-threads &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
make install-private-headers &&
ln -v -sf wish8.4 /usr/bin/wish

Command Explanations

--enable-threads: This switch forces the package to build with thread support.

make install-private-headers: This command is used to install the Tk library interface headers used by other packages if they link to the Tk library.

ln -v -sf wish8.4 /usr/bin/wish: This command is used to create a compatibility symbolic link to the wish8.4 file as many packages expect a file named wish.

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package:

cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr \
    --enable-threads --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
make install-private-headers

N32

Compile the package:

cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib32 \
    --enable-threads --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib32 &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
make install-private-headers

64Bit

Compile the package:

cd unix &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 \
    --enable-threads --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib64 &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
make install-private-headers &&
ln -v -sf wish8.4 /usr/bin/wish

Contents

Installed Programs: wish and wish8.4
Installed Libraries: libtk.so and libtkstub8.4.a
Installed Directories: /usr/lib/tk8.4

Short Descriptions

wish is a symlink to the wish8.4 program.
wish8.4 is a simple shell containing the Tk toolkit that creates a main window and then processes Tcl commands.
libtk.so contains the API functions required by Tk.
