[Scilab-Dev] Tcl/Tk 8.5 has been released

[Sylvestre Ledru]

Hello,

Thanks for the information Francois !
I am going to add the management of TCL/TK 8.5 under Linux too.

Tile sounds very promising :
http://wiki.tcl.tk/13636
and also the "Better platform look and feel".

Did you tried this version on Scipad under Linux ? Can we have a screenshot
? :|

Cheers,
Sylvestre
