I am curious about Tile. From what I have seen, isn't it a seperate

useful.

Tile is a theming engine, and it also adds some new widgets. I don't
know that much about it, since I just had a look at it about one year
ago, when I was playing around with the Ruby Tk-bindings. I was
disappointed by the TK-look and tried Tile, which looked a *lot*
better to me. In Ruby, I just had to add two or three lines to my code
in order to use it. I don't know if it's that easy with LTK, since I
haven't used it till now. Maybe the ltk-user list is a better place to
ask about it.

I hope I won't get stoned or worse for my mentioning of the ineffable
inferior scripting language. Forgive me for I did not know what I was
doing. May I be spared from St. Kennys furious anger.
