Toxy hasn't been touched in a while, but I believe its in a working
state. It is a pretty complicated thing, but maybe not so bad if you
know Tcl.
If you know C and Tcl, then I started the tkwidgets library to make it
easier to write Pd GUI widgets that are basically straight from the Tk
and Ttk widgets. That's in pure-data SVN:
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/tkwidgets/
Check out checkbutton.c and text.c for examples of how to wrap Tk
widgets.
