I looking to see if anyone knows of a version of Tk which works with
Photon.
I need to develop a simple GIU, Tk would be perfect but I don’t have
a x-windows toolkit.

I don’t think its been done. From talking to people who have looked
at it, my understanding is that the X stuff is NOT well seperated/segmented,
but is scattered throughout and it the code makes a lot of assumptions/has
a lot of expectations about the X-ness of its environment.

Phab isn’t too difficult to use for quickly building a GUI.

You might take a look at Slang from Cogent Real-Time Systems, it
might fit the bill for what you want to do. For more information

Have a look to http://www.tilcon.com … their TRTD supports Photon and
XFree86 for
QNX4. If you like it more object oriented … see
