Try looking up centering text in an HList widget, changing fonts or putting pictures on buttons.....locating windows within windows, embedding objects, pulling data from files and displaying. How about explaining the difference between Listboxes and Hlists? That was a time killer. I found myself endlessly going to forums or counting on coworkers for simple stuff which is embarassing on the job. On top of this, the index is merciless and screwed up. Perhaps it is a great reference book for the Perl Tk guru.

It must not be Nancy Walsh, because later I found "Learning Perl Tk", an earlier book which was wayyyy better- much easier to find things and program quickly. I rarely rate books bad, but I give this one an "F".....where's my Bic lighter?
