context_page_description: Tk is a free and open-source, cross-platform widget toolkit that provides a library of basic elements of GUI widgets for building a graphical user interface in many programming languages.
  Tk provides a number of widgets commonly needed to develop desktop applications, such as button, menu, canvas, text, frame, label, etc. Tk has been ported to run on most flavors of Linux, Mac OS, Unix, and Microsoft Windows. Like Tcl, Tk supports Unicode within the Basic Multilingual Plane but it has not yet been extended to handle the current extended full Unicode.
  Tk was designed to be extended, and a wide range of extensions are available that offer new widgets or other capabilities.
  Since Tcl/Tk 8, it offers "native look and feel". Highlights of version 8.5 include a new theming engine, originally called Tk Tile, but now generally referred to as "themed Tk", as well as improved font rendering. Highlights of version 8.6 include PNG support and angled text.

  Tk was designed to be extended, and a wide range of extensions are available that offer new widgets or other capabilities.
  Since Tcl/Tk 8, it offers "native look and feel" (for instance, menus and buttons are displayed in the manner of "native" software for any given platform). Highlights of version 8.5 include a new theming engine, originally called Tk Tile, but now generally referred to as "themed Tk", as well as improved font rendering. Highlights of version 8.6 include PNG support and angled text.
