title: Using Tk with C
body: <p>I’m a C programmer with no desire to deal with C++ tool-kits, and I’m trying to build a simple graphical card game.  I’m programming under Linux, but I’d like to have the option of a Windows port.  From what I’ve read, my options are GTK+ and Tk.</p>
  
  <p>I’m working through some GTK+ tutorials, and I’ll probably stick with that, but I don’t think I’m giving Tk a fair shot.  Trouble is, all the Tk documentation I can find is either for using Tk with {Tcl, Ruby, Perl, Python}, or for embedding a Tcl interpreter into the C program and using Tk that way.  Is there an easy(-ish) way to use Tk to build GUIs for a C program without digressing too much into Tcl?</p>
  
  <p>Ideally, is there a tutorial (something along the lines of the <a href="http://www.tkdocs.com/tutorial/firstexample.html">TkDocs Tk Tutorial</a>) but using something like the <a href="http://wiki.tcl.tk/17267">Tk C API</a>?</p>
