Proxy Tk: A Java applet user interface toolkit for
Tcl
Mark Roseman, TeamWave Software Ltd.
Abstract
Proxy Tk allows a Tcl program to provide a
highly interactive web-browser user interface, without requiring the end
user to download additional software. It uses a thin client design, where
a server-side Tcl application communicates with a very small generic Java
applet running in the browser, sending it commands to create and modify
widgets, and receiving events from the user. A Tk-like layer encapsulates
the communication protocols to provide a familiar programming paradigm,
and allow easy porting of existing code.
