TK is a GUI development system written in Tcl . . . John Ousterhout had the idea for Tcl in 1987. He began writing it in 1988, and others were using it early that same year. Guido thought up Python's essentials at the end of '89. He made a first working version at the beginning of '90. Colleagues used it in '90. He posted a release to NetNews in '91. -- Cameron Laird <claird at NeoSoft.com> Business: http://www.Phaseit.net Personal: http://starbase.neosoft.com/~claird/home.html
