Subject: Two small Tcl/Tk questions (mostly off-topic)

Author: Roy Eassa

In developing a simple GUI to invokes Chest, I have become disgusted with Visual
Basic due to its reliance on various libraries being installed and registered on
the end user's system.

I have no programming experience with Tck/Tk but have begun to explore it.  I
have two early questions:

1.) Is there an acknowledged "best" free Tcl/Tk development environment (IDE,
whatever) for Win32 systems?  (A link to a site that compares Tcl/Tk
installations would be fine.)

2.) Can one use it to create a stand-alone .exe GUI application (that does NOT
rely on .DLLs NOR require an installer) that an end-user lacking Tcl/Tk can run
on his system?  If so, how?  (A link to a site that answers this would be fine.)

TIA!

  -Roy.
