3Dviewer in TCL

Ran accross this sample-code for a 3Dviewer in TCL:

I was quite surprised that TCL is fast enough for an acceptable performance on interactive viewing.
Maybe something which could be used in a newLISP-TK envirment.

Ooo yes TK can do that... I use AC3D and thats partly build in Tcl/TK too.
Never the less its a flasing example indeed.. ;-)

By the way... Speaking of TK... have you seen the Window-Manager build in Tcl/TK ;-)

Another attempt to use 3D TCL:

This is basically OpenGL and SDL wrapped in Tcl. You can have OpenGL and SDL or GLUT from Peter's website: http://www.turtle.dds.nl/gl4newlisp/index.html

This way you can talk to OpenGL directly without the extra step of an Tcl wrapper.

That is true. But with tcl3d the 3D-window is just another GUI-widget and you can combine it with the other TK stuff.

Both could be usefull, depends on the job.
