As an avid (rabid?) advocate of tcl/tk, I would *love* to see
a port of tk done.  It would seem to me, that *IF* we can
manage to build the gcc port of X, then we should be able to
manage a port of tk.

This would result in an extremely powerful and fast graphical
development environment for DJGPP.

I am going to try to build the X port, as soon as I gain a
little more expierence with DJGPP.

I am interested in the opinion of the experts here, and also
curious if anyone might have an interest in helping.

Steve
