(Lajr) on March 4th 2007. Some say Tcl-Tk, being written in C, is in fact nothing but a bunch of C macros. The same can be said about any high-level language programmed in C (Python, Perl, Ruby to name a few). In fact, since C is written in Assembly, we can also say that C is nothing but a bunch of Assembly macros. Assembly is in fact the only programming language that has a direct accesss to the computer's parts.
This being said, like Tcl/Tk, Wx Widgets is a program that enables programmers to code C applications quickly, efficiently with a few keystrokes. Sounds familiar? Thus, Wx Widgets has certain characteristics of Tcl-Tk.
How does Wx Widgets scale with Tcl-Tk? Is it easier, harder to code with? Is it faster, more efficient? Any views?
