newLISP-TK examples

[CaveGuy]

I propose we as a group put together some example programs for newLISP.

When I looked there were no examples of a scrolling text window for the simple display of text. I would like to suggest that a newLISP-TK example be generated that expands the POP3 example into a simple mail viewer.

That is a great idea, we could put a new section "source code" or "examples" in http://newlisp.org/news/ like there is a "Tips&Tricks" section right now, where we could put all that stuff, or we could put a "contributions" directory in http://newlisp.org/download/ or both.

Or we could publish stuff here on the board first, discuss, cleanup, improve it and then move it over to News or download/contributions directory

I also would like to see more examples with demo-code for possible interfaces with tk from newlisp! Learning from others code is the most productive way of learning. I had bought the tk-book from Welsch, which you have recommended.

This would also be a nice improvment!

By the way, is there a plan to upgrade tk to 8.4 which has some interface improvements for tk (more widgets)?
