Thanks for the code example. My concept application that I have in
mind is like a mini google earth (no 3d), allowing the user to
display a map of an area and view and place objects on the map given
real world coordinates.<br>
Given the existence of AndroWish (a port of tcl/tk for android), I'd
also start exploring using lisp and that for android gui
development.<br>

<pre wrap="">I've attached the little bit of code I use for working with starkits
and so forth in ltk (it uses cl-fad for pathname munging, but you
might be able to do without). My main entry point function then looks
something like the following (making sure ltk-libs.lisp gets loaded
first, of course):
(defun main ()
(let ((ltk:*wish-pathname* (namestring (merge-pathnames #-(or :win32
:mswindows)
"tclkit-linux-x86"
#+(or :win32
:mswindows)
"tclkit-win32.upx.exe"))))
(ltk:with-ltk ()
;; Load the necessary starkits
(ensure-kits '("tkvideo.kit" "tkvideo")
'("img.kit" "Img")
'("winico06.kit" "Winico"))
(load-lib "twapi-x86-3.1.17.dll" "twapi")
<main application body here>)))

<pre wrap="">Thanks Matt I appreciate the tip. Do you find that you make use of
extensions related to Tk, or related to Tcl instead?

Unfortunately I only get to use Lisp at work when I can sneak it in
under the radar, so I haven't done a great deal with ltk (and not much
cross-platform stuff at that). So far all the starkits I've used have
been Tk related: the kits above are from a recent utility I wrote, and
are for webcam video display/capture, image formats (jpeg, png and so
forth), system tray icons, and some windows API bindings,
respectively. I had to write some bindings in ltk for some widgets
that weren't completely covered (I'll post them here as patches one of
these days), but that's about all. Again, I'm not exactly pushing the
envelope here, but I think ltk will get the job done quite well unless
you're trying to do something especially fancy.
