內容描述

Perl/Tk is the marriage of the Tk graphical toolkit with Perl, the
powerful programming language used primarily for system administration, web
programming, and database manipulation. With Perl/Tk, you can build Perl
programs with an attractive, intuitive GUI interface with all the power of Perl
behind it. Mastering Perl/Tk is the "bible" of Perl/Tk: It's not only a
great book for getting started, but the best reference for learning the
techniques of experienced Perl/Tk programmers. The first half of the book
contains the basics on how to use Perl/Tk, and then branches out into advanced
applications with a series of extensive program examples. The result is a book
accessible for novices, and invaluable for experienced programmers ready to
learn the next step in the elegant and effective use of Perl/Tk. The book
includes:

An introduction to each of the basic Perl/Tk widgets and
geometry managers
A dissection of the MainLoop, including how to use callbacks and
bindings effectively
Coverage of the Tix widgets, an extended set of widgets that are
a part of the standard Perl/Tk distribution
Working with images in Perl/Tk, including bitmaps, pixmaps,
photos, and how to compose a compound image type
How to create custom mega-widgets in Perl/Tk, both composite and
derived
Handling interprocess communication with Perl/Tk, both with
standard Unix utilities (pipes and sockets) and with the send command designed
for direct communication between Tk applications
Developing your own Tk widget in the C language
Examples of web applications written with Perl/Tk and the LWP
library
The book also includes appendices on installing Perl/Tk, a complete
quick-reference for each standard widget, and listings of all the extended
examples in the book. Nancy Walsh is the author of Learning
Perl/Tk, and Steve Lidie wrote the Perl/Tk Pocket Reference as well
as a series of Perl/Tk articles in The Perl Journal. Together, they have written
Mastering Perl/Tk to be the definitive guide to Perl/Tk.
