Tk usage with / from perl in Cygwin env

Fri Feb 20 02:56:00 GMT 2004

Has anyone tried using Tk from perl?
I was using a simple script example that used Tk for graphics interaction.
It wouldn't run because it wanted Tk, so I cpanned / downloaded the Tk perl
libs and ran an a make and got:
/bin/perl.exe /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.2/ExtUtils/xsubpp -typemap 
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.
