For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Writing a Tcl/Tk GUI is as easy as baking a cake

Designing a Graphic User Interface in Tcl/Tk is rather like writing a recipe.

With a recipe, you start off by listing the ingredients you need ... and in Tk you start off by defining your components (a.k.a. widgets).

With a recipe, you proceed to describe how the ingredients should be combined ... in Tk terms, that's when you feed them into a geometry manager to describe the relative positions of how they should be displayed.

Finally, a recipe may including serving suggestions. In Tk, you'll descibe some events and what action to take when the event happens.
