There must be something wrong with my installation, then; any suggestions h=
ow to find out what is going wrong? I barely dabble in perl, so I'm at a bi=
t of a a loss here.

Interestingly, previously widget worked fine when run under the perl debugg=
er, but I tried again today and it now shows the same error inside and outs=
ide the debugger.

I also tried reinstalling perl-Tk and perl, with no change.

Thanks,
