http://wiki.tcl.tk/15443</a><br><br>In the middle of that a Tile booster argues strenuously against mixing Tile with Tk classic because of the visual nastiness of combining native with Tk classic, which I certainly can imagine. They are saying, look, you want native (Tile) or you want the same appearance on two different platforms (Tk), make up yer mind.
<br><br>Fortunately, they say, the decision is easier for new code since old code requires some porting.
