As a working Ruby developer, yes, you might regard the distribution Tk version as a practical constraint on what you can do. That's true. However, the Tk main- tainers are more open to suggestions now than at any time in the past. There are already Tk extensions that support JPG and other formats. If you want these to be part of the standard Tk distribution, it's an *excellent* time to volunteer to help make it happen. -- Cameron Laird Business: http://www.Phaseit.net Personal: http://starbase.neosoft.com/~claird/home.html
