One of the best reasons to attend the Tcl conference is the
tutorial track. These sessions are presented by Tcl experts -
people who write the packages, write the books, and
develop applications on a daily basis. They share their
knowledge of Tcl/Tk and the practical experience in developing large,
robust applications. Whether you're new to Tcl or experienced,
these sessions will help you develop your projects more quickly.
Free Tutorials
This year we'll be offering FREE tutorials Monday and Tuesday
evenings. These will be 1-2 hour lectures on special topics.
Anyone is welcome to attend the evening lectures, whether they
are a member of the conference or not.

| Introduction to Tk 1( Gerald Lester ) | |
With remarkably little code, you can add a full-featured GUI to
your application that will have a platform-native appearance on
Windows, Unix, and Macintosh. In this course we'll explore all the
Tk interface components, learn how to modify and extend their
behaviors, and see how to put them together into complex
multi-window applications.

| Tcl Certification Test(Open) | |
One chance to get a Tcl/Tk Basic Certification cheaply. Details
are still being ironed out. You will need to register at the
conference to take the test.
|
| New Tcl/Tk Platforms( Clif Flynt ) | |
You can do neat things with a Raspberry Pi and Tcl.
You can also do neat things with the new AndroWish for Androids
Find out what some of them are.
The focus will be on the new commands and extensions that support
these cool platforms.

| Advanced Tk: GUI appearance( Jeff Hobbs ) | |
There's a big difference between a quick and dirty GUI and a
good looking professional GUI. Jeff will explain the newer features
Tk has added to create a solid GUI you can be proud to send to a
customer, including:
- Controlling the toplevel
- Themed widgets (tile/ttk)
- 8.5 widget enhancements
- Subtle platform differences
