Hi, I have perl5 running on my Mac (thanks Matthias for a great port) and have been playing around with a number of programs that I have written on Unix. I have seen a version of tcl/tk for the Mac but what I would like to do is to use perl/tk (as I do on Unix). Why not just load the perl/tk module? It needs to be compiled. At this point in time I do not have a compiler for the Mac and I don't know enought about Macs to know what sort of C compiler I should use (all my experience has been on Unix). Question: Does anyone have perl/tk running on a Mac? Is there a palce where I can get a copy of this? Optional: Should I buy a C compiler for my Mac and if so, which one? Note that I rarely write C anymore - 99% of my code on Unix is in Perl and I use the gcc (free) compiler to build perl (on Unix). Thanks for any advice you can think of....
