The Library ETK represents a interface to the Tcl-Interpreter and provides the use of Tk-widgets in context of EFEU.

The command etk is a version of esh with builtin interface to Tcl. On systems with shared library, esh could be used directly by activation the interface with

loadlib("ETK", "SetupETK");

The interface allows the simultaneos use of Tcl and the EFEU interpreter language. Details to the interface are found in etk(1). An overview of the EFEU interpreter language is given in esh(1).

The interface works with different versions of Tcl/Tk. Older Versions of Tcl use only strings for exchanging data values bewetween the two interpreters. Newer versions kann exchange bool, int and double valuers directly.

This manpage describes primarly the interface to Tcl/Tk and does not replace a Tcl/Tk documentation.
