Summary: A lot of info in a small package.
Comment: These pocket reference guides pack an amazing amount of information. In my opinion, this book (along with other pocket references) are better than some full sized books. One thing I like about this book is that it goes straight to the point. For example, I wanted to look up the after command. So, in a few seconds I find the description, and I immediately learn the syntax for this command. There is no long description or theory to read through, the bulk of what you need to know is right there. Anybody who is in to TCL/TK should get this book!

Summary: A different kind of animal
Comment: Tcl (Tool command language) scripting language.
TK (took Kit) graphic tool to help build graphic interface.
You will be surprised to know that you know a lot of the commands and concepts already.
The reason for different languages is to be more efficient in the purpose of the program. In my case this is used for writing code for phone switching systems. No one can remember all the commands; so it is wise to carry your pocket reference with you. For those that do not have the occasion to use Tcl/Tk the reference helps you stay culturally literate. And who know one day you may have the need and say "now where did I put that Pocket reference?"

Summary: Good if you like such things...
Comment: If it's important to you to have a quick reference in paper form, then by all means this is the book for you. It's technically accurate. It is getting a bit out of date, but Tcl has an excellent track record for maintaining upward compatibility. You may miss out on new features, but you won't be led too far astray.
If, on the other hand, you're comfortable with browsing the manual on-line, then save your money. There's little in this book that isn't also in the on-line manuals that come with Tcl/Tk, and you can be certain that the on-line manual matches the Tcl/Tk release that you're using.
