15.6. Are there Tables?

There are least two:

Nick's Table

Nick Ing-Simmons has distributed his own Table widget package with Tk-b9.01 (and higher). It is used through a use TK::Table; and $top->Table(); calls. A rather detailed demo of this widget/geometry manager's capabilities can be found in the table_demo script (in your Tk-b9.01/ build directory). There is also pod in the perl5/Tk/Table.pm file. You may also browse the perl Tk::Table man page on the web at
    http://w4.lns.cornell.edu/~pvhp/ptk/etc/Table.pm.html

Guy Decoux's BLT_Table

Guy Decoux <decoux@moulon.inra.fr> has ported the popular BLT_Table Tcl/Tk tabular geometry manager to perl/Tk. It was known to work with Tk-b8. You may obtain the latest version of it either from
    ftp://moulon.inra.fr/pub/pTk/
or from a CPAN site in the authors/id/GUYDX/ directory. You may also browse the perl BLT_Table man page on the web at
    http://w4.lns.cornell.edu/~pvhp/ptk/etc/Table.html
