porting Tcl/Tk gui for VisualC++

[Christian]

Hi all,

I have an application with a GUI in Tcl/Tk (running on AIX /Linux) and
I need to make it running (porting) in Windows 2000.
I would like to have some suggestion about this.
What IDE should I use to recreate the GUI, is VisualC++ good enough?
Or may be the Tcl/Tk could be compatible for Microsoft VisualC++, just
some modification for compilation should be enough?
The rest of the code of the project is already in C.

I don't need to use an X server (e.g. Exceed) to make it running, I
need to run is completely in Windows 2000 as stand alone.

Thank for your advices,
Cristian

This is kinda off-topic, but here goes. Tcl/Tk libraries can be found
for Windows 2000 too.
http://www.scriptics.com/ is one of the places you can get it from. You
should able to get it working quickly unless you have a lot of platform
speific code. If you don't want to use Tcl/Tk, then, yes, Visual C++ and
MFC should do your job for you.
