Tk libraries?

Has anyone put together libraries for tying in to Tk to create a user interface? I'm thinking of something that shields a poor simpleton like me from having to learn any Tcl along with trying to shove newLISP into my brain. I'm thinking of something that would take

(tk-newwidget windowid widgettype widgetname)

and evaluate to whatever tk code is needed to accomplish the task. Sorry I don't understand tk well enough yet to give a reasonable example, but here's a bad example.

(tk-newwindow "prefs") #creates a new window named entry with appropriate defaults
(tk-newwidget "prefs" "entry" "username") #creates a new entry field

I don't know how well this would work, or how to do it. After all, if I did, I wouldn't need it! ;-)
