Jeff Hobbs has mentioned this on the clp.tk newsgroup recently,

ask if he could enumerate the 20% thats currently missing.
Perhaps you can provide that info ?
In my understanding those 20% are:
- events %-something and Tk::Ev done differently so source-level
compatibility lacks here: you must add few keystrokes everywhere when
"%" variables vere used.
- pure-perl perlTk widgets are not supported.
- Most widget methods are implemented, but not all of them. Addition
of widget's method to Tcl::Tk is trivial but some of methods were just
not caught at the moment. On the contrary, with Tcl::Tk you can work
with perlTk syntax with widgets that are in Tcl/Tk but not in perlTk.
(see http://www.vkonovalov.ru/perl-tcltk.htm as example, namely
$bltgraph->elementCreate(qw/line1 -symbol triangle/,...) ) That said,
with Tcl::Tk you get more methods compared to perlTk but not full
perlTk coverage.
I've been meaning to look at the above more some time now. Will do so
"real soon now", but lack of Perl mega-widgets is a show-stopper, no?
Best regards,
Vadim.
