[vtkusers] Tcl/Tk in Quartz MacOSX

[William A. Hoffman]

The current state of VTK on MacOSX is somewhat incomplete.  The basic VTK 
classes compile with tcl
wrapping, and you can create renderwindows, but that is about it.

Here is a list of things not done:

1. tcl/TK interaction does not work.   The Quartz stuff in VTK is based on
the newer Coco, but TK is based on the older Coco.   I am not sure it is 
possible to mix the two.
However, it may not be that hard to write a Coco based renderwindow for VTK.

2. The text mapper has not been implemented.


I would be willing to help someone write the coco based renderwindow or 
perhaps someone
with more knowledge of Coco and Carbon could have a look and see if the two 
can be mixed.
I do not think anyone has done Java or Python for MacOSX yet.

So, VTK is only really about 80% done on MacOSX.
